# CourseBuilder

Coursebuilder is a preprocessor tool for [pandoc](https://pandoc.org) 
to generate multi-lingual curricula documentation tables from 
structured representations as a flatfile database. Data scheme and 
actual values are kept in YAML files in order to version them with git.

# Usage

$> python coursebuilder
