If you do not have python installed please install python from https://www.python.org/downloads/ and follow the installation instructions.
If you do not have sphinx installed please install sphinx.
To check whether sphinx is installed open the command line
(Windows + R, type cmd). Now start the python console by
typing in python.
If the code import sphinx does not raise a
ModuleNotFoundError sphinx is installed. You can go on
with the section compile the script.
If sphinx is not installed run the code
pip install sphinx (or conda install sphinx if you have
python installed via anaconda. To find out if you are using
conda type conda list in the command line. If there is an
error you are not using anaconda).
Open the command line in the directory of the manuscript
(./manuscript). Now run the following command:
sphinx-build -M latexpdf . _build
The compiled .pdf file can be found in
./manuscript/_build/latex/tools4scicomp.pdf.
