• Improved handling of untrusted YAML and frontmatter values.

• ESLint passed with zero warnings.
• Build completed successfully.

Manuscript Compiler 0.10.0 — Initial Public Release

🎉 Manuscript Compiler 0.10.0 — Initial Public Release

This is the first public release of Manuscript Compiler, an Obsidian plugin that transforms structured manuscripts into publication-ready documents without leaving your vault.

Designed specifically for authors, Manuscript Compiler understands the structure of a book—including Front Matter, Parts, Chapters, Scenes, and Back Matter—and compiles only the content you choose to publish. The result is clean, professional output suitable for editing, publishing, and archival.

This is the first public release of Manuscript Compiler. Feedback, bug reports, feature requests, and suggestions are very welcome as the project continues to evolve.

---

✨ Highlights

• 📖 Purpose-built for authors writing in Obsidian
• 📂 Right-click any manuscript folder to begin compilation
• 🌳 Review and correct manuscript structure before exporting
• 📚 Native support for:
  • DOCX (designed for Vellum workflows)
  • ODT
  • EPUB
  • HTML
  • Markdown
  • XML
• ✍️ Semantic understanding of Parts, Chapters, Scenes, Front Matter, and Back Matter
• 🎨 Configurable formatting, scene breaks, title pages, and paragraph indentation
• 🔒 Completely offline operation
• 🚫 No Pandoc

📚 Built for Publishing

Unlike a generic Markdown exporter, Manuscript Compiler compiles only the reviewed manuscript content. Project notes, dashboards, metadata, planning material, revision notes, and other non-manuscript content are automatically excluded, producing clean publishing files ready for professional publishing workflows.
