# Beigepaper 

A rewrite of the Yellowpaper in non-Yellowpaper syntax.

This project exists to make the [Ethereum Yellowpaper](http://gavwood.com/paper.pdf) readable by a broader audience. This is a beta release, so errata exist, and content is still being added.

### Build Instructions

If you're running Debian or Ubuntu derivatives:

```

sudo apt install pdflatex texlive* biber

```

Next:

```

./biber-n-build

```

will create the pdf file. 

Lastly, open the pdf with a reader that supports *character rendering* (e.g. evince on Linux) if you want to do text searches.
