 Adding JAX, Numba and Pytorch support for `Op`\s
-=======================================

 PyTensor is able to convert its graphs into JAX, Numba and Pytorch compiled functions. In order to do
 this, each :class:`Op` in an PyTensor graph must have an equivalent JAX/Numba/Pytorch implementation function.

 How to build documentation
 --------------------------
 
-Let's say you are writing documentation, and want to see the `sphinx
-<http://sphinx.pocoo.org/>`__ output before you push it.
-The documentation will be generated in the ``html`` directory.
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    cd PyTensor/
-    python ./doc/scripts/docgen.py
-
-If you don't want to generate the pdf, do the following:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    cd PyTensor/
-    python ./doc/scripts/docgen.py --nopdf
-
-
-For more details:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-   $ python doc/scripts/docgen.py --help
-   Usage: doc/scripts/docgen.py [OPTIONS]
-     -o <dir>: output the html files in the specified dir
-     --rst: only compile the doc (requires sphinx)
-     --nopdf: do not produce a PDF file from the doc, only HTML
-     --help: this help
