• Marp: A Markdown Presentation App That Simplifies Your Tech Talks

  In today's fast-paced tech world, giving effective presentations is crucial for conveying complex ideas and engaging audiences. While Markdown has emerged as a popular lightweight markup language for creating rich text documents, its use in creating dynamic, interactive, and visually appealing presentations can be challenging. This is where Marp comes into the picture - an open-source Markdown presentation app... - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• I turned my open-source project into a full-time business

  It's just CommonMark, Gruber was ticked off enough that he declined to allow them to use the term Markdown at all.

• I don't always use LaTeX, but when I do, I compile to HTML (2013)

  You have also AsciiDoctor ( https://asciidoctor.org/ ) which is alive and well. I am using it for technical CS documentation internally, but only for single page documents. I did not try to deploy their whole multi-document setup called Antora ( https://antora.org/ ). - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Markdown, Asciidoc, or reStructuredText - a tale of docs-as-code

  Asciidoctor is a Ruby-based text processor for parsing AsciiDoc into a document model and converting it to HTML5, PDF, EPUB3, and other formats. Built-in converters for HTML5, DocBook5, and man pages are available in Asciidoctor.
