Your work is incredible — Thank you. I am on the board of the OWASP Foundation which writes best practices for software security. I was trying to have a project off the ground to be able to publish these books in epub/ebook + physical form. I would very much would like to reach out to you for help — we are an OSS foundation so we have a mutual interest in leveraging open source tools to publish open source content :-)

Here is our page: https://github.com/OWASP/OWASP-Books/ Right now I use a mix of Pandoc & Make — — most of our community writes in MarkDown.

Please reach out when you have a chance!

@kerberosmansour I agree about @JayPanoz's wonderful work here :) In addition to Blitz for ebooks, here are three open-source projects that might be of interest, especially if you're aiming to create good-looking physical books:

  1. Editoria, which is led by the Coko Foundation, which is building an exciting Javascript-based, modular publishing system.
  2. Bookdown, which uses Rmarkdown to produce books in various formats.
  3. The Electric Book workflow, which uses Jekyll and markdown to produce books in print, epub, and website forms. (This one is my team's project.)

Thanks guys, appreciated.

@kerberosmansour So you can contact me using the form at the bottom of this page if needed: http://jiminy.chapalpanoz.com/contacter-2/ (sorry in French but "nom" is "name", "email" is "email", "sujet" is "object" and "message" is "message" if that can help).

Actually, thanks for pointing those projects @arthurattwell, as Julien Taquet (who doesn’t have a GitHub account it seems so it’s John_Tax on Twitter), from the Coko Foundation, is exploring a vanilla CSS version of the LESS framework. This is actually something I’ve been willing to do but couldn’t for lack of time.
