The source for the book is also on Github. It seems like running make.sh will compile to HTML, though I haven't tried it myself.

Ah thanks for the link. As other commenters also mention, it looks like a single giant HTML page is causing the server loads.

You can clone the Github repo and then run a local webserver to access it at localhost:8000/book.html (there is a `make.sh` build script, but the repo already contains the produced HTML).

You can also fork the repo, enable Github Pages, and then access it at yourgithubname.github.io/python-opengl/book.html

I just made a Github issue suggesting to the author, if he's not opposed to using Github pages himself: https://github.com/rougier/python-opengl/issues/38

Thanks, I'll look into that and it would make sense t ohost it on github.

He does say This:

“Last point, I wrote the book in a kind of modern Kerouac's style such that you can download it once and continue reading it offline. Initial loading may be slow though.”

I do think the entire book is on a single HTML page

Yes, sorry for that. The post on hacker news put our server under some stress.

Still, the entire page/book only looks to be 1.2 MB. Apparently the server is under some stress right now.
