This is an *unofficial* PDF version of "Category Theory for Programmers" by Bartosz Milewski, converted from his [blogpost series](https://bartoszmilewski.com/2014/10/28/category-theory-for-programmers-the-preface/) (with permission!)
Conversion is done by scraping the blog with [Mercury Web Parser](https://mercury.postlight.com/web-parser/) to get a clean HTML content, modifying and tweaking with [Beautiful Soup](https://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/), finally, converting to LaTeX with [Pandoc](https://pandoc.org/). See [scraper.py](https://github.com/hmemcpy/milewski-ctfp-pdf/blob/master/src/scraper.py) for additional information.
Chances for successful compilation are increased if you have almost complete installation of recent [TeX Live 2017](https://www.tug.org/texlive/) distribution (the PDF here is compiled with 2017 release). The needed OpenType fonts must be installed in the operating system. In addition, [pygments](http://pygments.org/) for Python must be installed as well.
