For those who like style... I've been getting a little crazy exploring how varied and presentable I can make the AsciiDoc output. In my previous message, I shared my dzslides backend [1] which produced these HTML5-based presentations [2].
We all love Twitter Bootstrap and there's no question their documentation, which is based on Bootstrap, is pretty slick looking [3]. I wanted to see if I could reproduce that page using AsciiDoc and a custom backend [4] (employing as few tricks as possible). I'm happy to report that I could match it almost 1-to-1 [5] (with the exception of non-documentation elements such as forms and buttons, and a few limitations on styling tables). I'm going to keep working to simplify the AsciiDoc source document and backend, perhaps even enough to compel Twitter to adopt it :) You are welcome to join the effort! Cheers, -Dan p.s. In the process of developing the bootstrap-docs backend, I realized that AsciiDoc could really use a base HTML5 backend that is much more minimal and makes maximum use of HTML5 tags (section, article, aside, etc). I'll likely refactor that out of the bootstrap-docs backend so that I have less to override. I also plan to create a vanilla bootstrap backend that doesn't use the extra assets used in the documentation.
