Building the documentation
----------------------------
-You can use the makefile and build-html command for building the documentation during developement::
+You can use the makefile in the doc directory with ``make html`` to build the
+documentation. To test smaller changes you can consider ``build-html``, which skips some checks but will be faster::
$ cd doc
- $ pip install -r requirements.txt
+ $ make install-dependencies
$ make build-html
We're reusing generated files for speed, use ``make clean`` when you want to start from scratch.
