tl;dr: if you need to extend AsciiDoc, as of today, use Asciidoctor, 
nothing else

I would advise people against looking at AsciiDoc3 now. It just started so 
it's not mature, it's based on the v2 design which did great for its time 
but is not easily extensible (look at those config files to get an idea). 
Also, the maintainer of the new v3 is stubborn with people trying to 
explain to him how open source software licensing works.

Asciidoctor community is where to go for AsciiDoc processing for the time 
being. As the asciidoctor-reveal.js maintainer, I can say that I would have 
*never* developed such an extension with Asciidoc2 config files. Also, note 
that I'm a Python (and Perl) developer, not a Ruby developer. These 
languages are really similar so it's just a matter of biting the bullet and 
doing some stackoverflow-style copy and paste programming at the beginning 
;)

Cheers,
