mdBook VS bookdown

I personally had the frustration that websites generated with [mdBook](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook) always displayed me the "Navy" theme. But I prefer the "Ayu" theme, therefore I always set the theme to "Ayu". But doing things per hand is not the way we do stuff around here, so I decided to write a small browser extension that applies the themes for me.

It's mdBook which is made in Rust and popular with Rust content https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/

I made a PDF generator for mdbook called mdbook-compress.

This makes me think, maybe I'll start using mdBook. I find it really comfortable to read and it's probably not too complicated to use.

I sync Obsidian with Git and use pandoc for book / ebook generation (or Foam with Visual Code might work too).

Scrivener can synchronise with Git too - albeit indirectly (it sync's with a folder & I use a simple script to keep it up to date)

If you need to organise research you can sync Wiki.js with Git.

However, Gitbook or mdBook might be easier to use for a single book project.

mdBook

+1 for Pandoc. I'll also add mdBook as an alternate for markdown to web version of ebooks (especially for search and themes).

I also don't mind using a Markdown editor + static site generator like mdBook - BookStack is where I'd have gone if I wanted something else

All credit goes to the mdbook people for this! I'm using it to turn Markdown text into HTML, complete with interactive playgrounds and all :-)

If you can pre-build the index, Lunr seems to work well, but it doesn't support Chinese. R/bookdown switched for these reasons recently to fuse.js.

There is discussion of some of the other options and their tradeoffs here:
