Quick Start
Welcome to the DoenetML documentation! This page will provide you with some quick pointers to enable you to start creating content today!
You will learn:
- What components are in DoenetML and their basic syntax
- How to create text, math formulas, images, and external links for your lessons
- How to define mathematical objects for use in question posing
- How to quickly create basic questions using defined mathematical objects
- How to generate graphs with interactive geometry
- How to award credit for specific student interactions with graph geometry
- How to rapidly create activities with random variants
Components: Definition and basic syntax
Components in DoenetML are the basic building blocks of the set of instructions the author provides to the what is known as the Doenet core. These instructions tell the core what content should be rendered (or displayed on the page to the viewer), as well as how that content should behave.
Creating text, math formulas, images, and external links
Text content in doenetML can be created using the component, for paragraphs of text, or the component, which are analagous to string variables.
