-## Pygments
-
-We also use pygments (http://pygments.org) for syntax highlighting in documentation markdown pages,
-so you will also need to install that (it requires Python) by running `sudo pip install Pygments`.
-
-To mark a block of code in your markdown to be syntax highlighted by jekyll during the compile
-phase, use the following sytax:
-
-    {% highlight scala %}
-    // Your scala code goes here, you can replace scala with many other
-    // supported languages too.
-    {% endhighlight %}

-## Sphinx
-
-We use Sphinx to generate Python API docs, so you will need to install it by running
-`sudo pip install sphinx`.

-## knitr, devtools

-SparkR documentation is written using `roxygen2` and we use `knitr`, `devtools` to generate
-documentation. To install these packages you can run `install.packages(c("knitr", "devtools"))` from a
-R console.
