Paper Submission

JOSS Instruction

Here in this chapter, we will briefly describe how we follow Submitting a paper to JOSS.

Markdown Source Text

The draft paper is supposed to be prepared as a markdown source text, named “paper.md”, which should be placed in the joss-paper branch of the code repository. It should follow JOSS Paper Format.

PDF Compilation

To check the format, JOSS provides a script for GitHub Actions[1], which automates the markdown source text to PDF compilation. The execution of the script will be triggered if you "push" the changes of “paper.md”. After its completion, you can retrieve a compiled PDF from the GitHub Actions job result.

Paper Submission

Footnotes
  1. See Open Journals PDF Generator. As suggested there, we have placed this script to .github/workflows/draft-pdf.yml in the repository branch.
