This repository contains supporting code for the [Tumble Forth][tf] blog. Each
top folder represents a story arc, each folder underneath is an article.
-Each leaf folder has a Makefile, with most of them having a "run" target, so you
-can type `make run` to build and run the thing. If there are multiple things to
-be ran, then there will be multiple "runXX" targets. Read the Makefile to figure
-it out.
+To build, run `make`. This requires the package `python3-markdown` on Debian.
