Knowledge, Learning, Community

There were a couple issues to sort out, but I successfully followed Tony Hirst's instructions in this post and now have my own GitHub-based version of an entire FutureLearn course form the Open University. Here's the GitHub repository (feel free to clone or whatever). It's a clever hack - he uses the 'Issues' submission form as a mechanism to input a command which instructs an aggregator to download the course, store it in GitHub, and then publish it as GitHub pages (or as a Jupyter binder). GitHub is probably not the ideal environment for this (since it's so difficult to learn) but the concept itself is sound.
