    I’m reworking the publishing toolchain I’ve used to write and publish two ebooks and trying to get it released as a proper Rubygem - NerdPress.

    • Generate a project from the command line
    • Export to HTML, PDF, EPUB and MOBI formats
    • Manage and store project files in a simple directory structure
    • Authoring in Markdown and HTML
    • Styling in CSS and Sass
    • Built with technical books in mind (command line tools, syntax highlighting and code block formatting)
    • Modular design so that developers can update the workflow as needed

    It’s still not ready for prime time, but I’d love to hear from anyone who could use something like this.

      I looked for a good Linux-based alternative to Visio for a long time, but I was never very happy with any of the options. I stopped looking once I started using Draw.io a few years ago. It integrates with Google Docs where I’m doing much of my documentation these days, and the drawings look great.
