+First steps with LATEX
+
+@content
+In order to compile the script for this tutorial, a few steps have to be followed, which are explained in the next slides.
+
+@slide(layout=content-only)
+
+@title
+Installing the compiler
+
+@content
+* The compiler translates our LATEX code into a PDF
+* Depending on your operating system, different compilers are available
+* Windows: MikTEX
+* macOS: MacTEX
+* Linux distributions: TEXLive
+ * Debian-based distributions: run `sudo apt install texlive-full`
+ * other distributions: see the website
+
+
+Make sure to install the full version with all packages, if you can!
+
+
+@slide(layout=content-only)
+
+@title
+Installing the editor
+
+@content
+* An editor can downloaded once the compiler has been installed
+* For editing LaTeX documents, any text editor works fine, e.g., Notepad++, VSCode
+* For beginners, TEXstudio is recommended due to its LaTex-specific features
+* Download and install TEXstudio
+
+@slide(layout=content-only)
+@title
+Compile the script for the first time
+
+@content
+* Download the project archive from the VC.
+* Unzip the archive.
+* Open the file `main.tex` in TEXstudio. It is located in the root directory of the archive.
+* Compile `main.tex` by pressing ⏩
+* A few new files will be generated by the compilation.

+Listings
+
+@content
+We have multiple examples of LaTeX source code in the script. As a default setting, we use the package **listings** for displaying them.
+
+* However, the package **minted** generates more appealing listings.
+* Minted requires additional configuration, like the installation of the programming language **Python 3** and the package **Pygments**
+* The following slides explain how to use `minted` for this LaTeX project

+@title
+Installation of Python 3
+
+@content
+* Check if Python is already installed on your operating system using a command prompt:
+``` {.lang-sh .hljs}
+python --version
+```
+* If installed, the output should look similar to this:
+``` {.lang-sh .hljs}
+Python 3.8.5
+```
+* If not installed, follow the instructions for your operating sytem on the **[website](https://www.python.org/)**
+* Make sure to enable the option to add Python to your PATH, if possible
+* Run the above-mentioned command to ensure the installation was successful
+
+
+@slide(layout=content-only)
+@title
+`Pygments` and compiler command settings
+
+@content
+* Install the **Pygments** by executing the following command in a command prompt:
+pip install Pygments
+
+* In TeXstudio, navigate to Options → Configure TeXstudio → Commands
+* Next to the PdfLaTeX label, add the ``shell-escape`` flag to the compiler command:
+
+pdflatex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode **\-\-shell-escape** %.tex
+
+
+Passing the flag ``--shell-escape`` to your compiler can be a potential security risk. **Only do it for documents you trust!**
+
+
+@slide(layout=content-only)
+@title
+Change the listings mode
+
+@content
+In order to compile the script using `minted`, the listings mode has to be changed.
+
+* Create a new file in the root directory of the project archive, named `listings-mode.tex`
+* Insert the following command into the newly created file
+
+``` {.lang-tex .tex .hljs}
+\newcommand\listingsmode{minted}
+```
+
+* Compile `main.tex` again by pressing ⏩
