Beautifying Org Mode in Emacs (2018)
My main authoring tool is then Emacs Markdown Mode (https://jblevins.org/projects/markdown-mode/). For data entry, it comes with some bells and whistles similar to org-mode, like C-c C-l for inserting links etc.
I seldom export my notes for external usage, but if it is the case, I use lowdown (https://kristaps.bsd.lv/lowdown/) which also comes with some nice output targets (among the more unusual are Groff and Terminal). Of cource pandoc (https://pandoc.org/) does a very good job here, too.

Show HN: I made a tool to clean and convert any webpage to Markdown
This is one of those things that the ever-amazing pandoc (https://pandoc.org/) does very well, on top of supporting virtually every other document format.

LaTeX makes me so angry at word
Folks feel the same way about Markdown versus LaTeX: why use something significantly more complicated where a looser, human-readable grammar works better?
For any other situations, I use https://pandoc.org/, or, generate a Word doc scriptomatically.

Launch HN: Onedoc (YC W24) – A better way to create PDFs
Congrats on the launch, I guess, but there are so many free options that I can't think of a situation where paying $0.25 per document would be justified...? Just to name a few:
Back in the days, I used to use XSL-FO [0] and it was okay. It was not very precise but it rarely if ever broke, and was perfectly integrated with an XML/XSLT solution. Yeah, this was a long time ago.
Last month I used html-to-pdfmake [1] and it's also not very precise and more fragile, but very efficient and fast.
Yet another approach would be to pro grammatically generate .rtf files (for example) and use Pandoc [2] to produce PDFs (I have not tried this in production but don't see why it wouldn't work).

Ask HN: Looking for lightweight personal blogging platform
Others have mentioned static site generators. I like Hakyll [1] because it can tightly integrate with Pandoc [2] and allows you to develop custom solutions if your needs ever grow.

Show HN: CLI for generating beautiful PDF for offline reading
Have you compared it with a conversion by pandoc (https://pandoc.org/)?

Pandoc
I have used it to kickstart a blogging project that I wish to come back to soon. The Lua inter-op for custom readers, writers and filters is great but I wish there was more editor integration and even perhaps an official IDE/editor with built-in debugging features (probably something already do-able with Emacs but I haven't checked). The only blocker for my project is no support for "ChunkedDoc" for Lua filters [1] which forces me to write more code and a complicated Makefile.

Ask HN: Why are slides used in talks instead of scrolling one long document?
I remember a few years ago some more dynamic presentation modes making a bit of a splash. I used one of them[1] to good reception in at least one talk, but ultimately it felt more like really slick slide-to-slide transitions than a fundamentally different paradigm.

- impress/impress.js: It's a presentation framework based on the power of CSS3 transforms and transitions in modern browsers and inspired by the idea behind prezi.com.

Looking for a tool or app that makes interactive document
What do you mean by interactive? If you're talking slideshows, then stuff like reveal.js, impress.js, deck.js, or shower would do the trick.

Does anyone have a favorite (and accessible) JS-based presentation library?
I've looked at impress.js and reveal.js. Impress feels a little dated to me (very Prezzi-like) and not very accessible if I wanted to hand out the url.

LaTeX for not math-related writing
For other programatic methods, there are plenty of non-LaTeX tools, reveal.js and impress.js for starters, but the learning curve for someone not already familiar with web design and javascript is too high IMO just to get prettier transitions and embedded video.
