To work on the documentation and get a live preview, install the requirements
and run sphinx-autobuild

pip install -r ./docs/requirements.txt
sphinx-autobuild ./docs/ ./docs/_build/
Then browse to http://localhost:8000 to watch the live preview.
Fork mzPAF on GitHub to make your changes.
Commit and push your changes to your fork.

) have been updated according to your changes. Python docstrings are formatted in the numpydoc style.Open a pull request with these changes. You pull request message ideally should include:
- A description of why the changes should be made.
- A description of the implementation of the changes.
- A description of how to test the changes.
The pull request should pass all the continuous integration tests which are automatically run by GitHub Actions.
