WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
For a conversion to an e-book, it is possible to take a trip through (La)TeX and TeX4ht, or use Pandoc, which is pretty good at converting from Markdown to HTML (better than between, say, HTML and LaTeX). We will cover all these aspects and more in our book, which itself will be written and typeset using the Markdown package.
I've seen one interesting tool that tries to bridge the gap somewhat for writing books, and it does that by being its own software with a split-panel view built-in and bolting extra syntax on top of markdown: https://github.com/vkbo/novelWriter
