Documents are generated from a Markdown source using Node.js modules described here.
To view mathematical formulas, install pandoc as explained in the section on Document Conventions. This is invoked by the Node.js module lib/pandoc.js.
Clone this repository, run npm install and npm start to start a Node.js server and access the HTML pages at, for example, http://localhost:8080/odata-data-aggregation-ext (see lib/server.js).
Run npm run build to build HTML and Markdown files for publication on github.io (see lib/build.js).
Run npm run pdf to convert the HTML files into PDF files (using puppeteer, see lib/pdf.js).
