This project’s dependencies can be installed in a project-local directory with bundle install.
Then, different targets can be built (in ./build) using the command bundle exec rake <TARGET>,
where <TARGET> can be html, epub, pdf, or empty for all of them.
The target clean will remove all built files.
See the AsciiDoc Writer’s Guide, or for more details on the syntax, the User Manual.
One of asciidoctor’s strengths is building a large document from component parts. This template has separate top-level directories for asciidoctor documents which will be included as sections, images, tables. You can even import entire asciidoctor projects from other contributors (for example, if you share a common ruleset)!
The resulting artifacts have a directory too:
Always include a LICENSE.adoc with your product if you would like it to be accessible to others.
