A common practices for tech people and also very easy for non tech, can help who wants to build an e-book.

Yap, a matter of having a markdown to HTML parser on the contents, and we should be good.

Nice shout @aurium. 👍

I used epub-gen (actually a slighly forked version, have made PR, was struggling with new lines) together with marked and front-matter... you could easily adapt the code for other markdown files (e.g. Jekyll projects) -> epub jobs.

Also, as a note, @fedeghe put up a project that handles Markdown files as input using this lib here: https://github.com/fedeghe/malta-epub

Though keep in mind it's using an outdated version of this lib (v0.0.17) with known issues on images download. ⚠️
