(Desktop), Chrome 28.0 (Android 4.3), Firefox 22.0 (Android 4.3),
Opera Mini 7.5 (Android 4.3). Opera Mini faired well, but missed
a few steps. Probably won't work well in IE < 9.

The weird font sizes on Chrome and Firefox on Android are due to font
boosting. I'll keep it enabled because it does vastly improve
legibility, and also fits the page (horizontally) within the screen. To
disable it, add this meta tag to the head element in each page:

Or, alternatively:

The site is written for Jekyll as used by Github Pages, and that is
installed on mars. The site is updated using:
Status of the exercises:
1. Title - all pages.
2. 3+ Headings - index.html
3. Some paragraphs - index.html
4. 1+ Ordered lists - index.html
5. 1+ Unordered lists - all pages.
6. 1+ Tables - acad.html
7. Some line-breaks - all pages
8. Some horizontal lines - index.html
9. Some comments - index.html
10. Various text styles - index.html
11. Internal bookmarks - resources.html to acad.html
12. Links to internal pages - all pages (via sidebar).
13. Links to external websites - contact.html
14. Relative links - all pages.
15. Embedded images - all pages (via footer).
16. Styles within tags - index.html
17. Styles in style tag - not done (only acad.html needed
a specific style, and I
moved that to styles/acad.css.)
18. Separate CSS file - all pages via style.css,
acad.html via styles/acad.html.
19. Special characters - acad.html
```sh
cd ~/devel/web && /usr/local/bin/jekyll build -d
/users/pg13/murukesh/public_html -w --config _config.yml,_sitename.yml
```
`_sitename.yml` is my way of tricking Jekyll into adding a `root_url` to
the generated URLs. On Github, the file isn't read and `root_url` is
empty, leading to absolute URLs from the root of the site. On the CSE
home folder, `_sitename.yml` defines `root_url` to be `~murukesh`,
making the URLs relative to my home directory.
