• 37signals announces next ONCE product: Workbooks, to release for free

  "But it's surprisingly challenging to publish books on the web in nice, cohesive, tight, easy-to-navigate HTML format." Quarto is one great option for doing that today. Bonus: it can also generate EPUBs and PDFs, all from one set of source files. https://quarto.org/ It's free and open source. https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto-cli https://jjallaire.github.io/hopr/. - Source: Hacker News / about 17 hours ago

• Ask HN: Best way for a Markdown based blog and eBook?

  I've used Quarto[1] to build a personal blog and it has been really easy and straightforward. Especially if you want to run some code alongside the post (like Python, R, or Julia). As far as I know, you can also use it to write books and presentations. [1]: https://quarto.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 6 days ago

• Scipy 1.13

  > Interactive examples have been added to the documentation, allowing users to run the examples locally on embedded Jupyterlite notebooks in their browser. This might sound strange, but to me this is the most exciting thing listed in the update document. I've been looking for ways to include _interactive_ Python scripts on static webpages (such as those made using Jupyter Book [1] or Quarto [1].

• Sent – simple plaintext presentation tool

  Deckset was the OG in this space, which I used a decade (!) ago in college. Looks like they moved off the Mac App Store, and are bringing out an iOS app now: https://www.deckset.com Now I much prefer something like https://quarto.org with dataviz. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Sent – simple plaintext presentation tool

  To mirror another comment: I really like the concept and will give it a try. As an alternative, I want to suggest [Quarto](https://quarto.org) - somewhat similar, easy to use, one might even call it "basic" (I mean that in a good way!) 7/5 ^^. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• AsciidocFX: The Asciidoc Editor for documentation and authoring

  AsciidocFX, is an open-source, cross-platform editor that provides an exceptional user experience and a comprehensive set of features for working with Asciidoc files. Though Asciidoctor provides these capabilities, not everyone will be comfortable enough to work in the commandline or shell setting that's where AsciidocFX comes to the rescue. Let's explore some of the key capabilities that make AsciidocFX stand out. - Source: dev.to / 21 days ago

• 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 / 4 months ago

• Documentation generators and custom syntax highlighting

  I use Asciidoctor, highlightjs, a custom highlight.js language definition and that bash script:. Source: about 1 year ago
