Show HN: Asciibook – An eBook Generator for AsciiDoc

Asciibook is an e-book generator tool that can convert AsciiDoc to e-books in HTML/PDF/EPUB/MOBI format.

GitBook used to be the best open source e-book generator, but they abandoned the project at the end of 2018. E-book authors either continue to use GitBook without maintenance or write their own scripts. So I came up with the idea to write a new eBook generation tool to replace GitBook.

Homepage: https://asciibook.org/ GitHub: https://github.com/asciibook/asciibook

Features:

- Supports generation of HTML/PDF/EPUB/MOBI.

- Based on the command line, distributed via docker, works well with CI/CD.

- HTML/CSS/JavaScript based theme system.

- Support latexmath.

For demonstrate, I generated an e-book using the source code of the "Pro Git", please visit https://asciibook.org/progit2/.

This project has just been released, I will continue to optimize it. Welcome to use and provide feedback.
