  For notes, thoughts and the like, I use Joplin with e2ee enabled. Over the years, I find myself using it for thing I would have previously opened up a google doc for. With Joplin you can go far beyond the basic markdown features of Github flavored markdown to make it a really useful, dynamic document. Then it is a simple 1 line of text in your terminal (using pandoc) to convert that to a *.docx file. I find I'm much more productive using markdown than I am using a rich text editor.

  Interesting project, but I would personally use pandoc in a docker container for the job

  With pandoc 3.1.1 from the project's github - which might be ahead of what ubuntu packaged for you - pandoc --to=plain --wrap=none naaclhlt2016.tex yields two warnings, but else processes the .tex. Give it a try.

  Although you pass it command-line arguments instead of a JSON object, I find pandoc to be close in functionality of Carbone.

  Once you've typed them out, you can convert it to many other formats (html, pdf, docx, etc.) using pandoc. There are also tools like litemdview that can preview markdown in real-time from any editor.

  It's not at all difficult (https://pandoc.org/). However, I'd hazard a guess that pandoc written in Rust or C (with idioms appropriate to those languages) would be much more performant.

• I think a lot of talented engineers struggle with putting together a great resume so I put together some advice to help

  I have a homebrew version of the same thing. My web resume is done via Hugo with a little custom CSS. Then I have a Perl script I wrote ages ago that fetches the HTML, tweaks it a little, and runs it through Pandoc to produce a PDF.
