Scrape ShaderToy. Instead of running this, consider downloading the files from here: https://goo.gl/MWGvkL Or if you want to do more work with ShaderToy data, consider using their API https://www.shadertoy.com/api
# !/usr/bin/env python
import os, re, argparse, json
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
description='Extract code from ShaderToy json.')
parser.add_argument('input')
parser.add_argument('output')

Create a private fork of a public repository

The repository for the assignment is public and Github does not allow the creation of private forks for public repositories.

The correct way of creating a private frok by duplicating the repo is documented here.

For this assignment the commands are:

  1. Create a bare clone of the repository. (This is temporary and will be removed so just do it wherever.)

git clone --bare [email protected]:usi-systems/easytrace.git
