Ok. I'll keep this in mind in future efforts. Sounds like the current
tools page should be shifted over, I'll try to do this in the future.

Thanks to the CSS grid / flexbox, this is actually pretty trivial now :)
The most annoying thing is getting Org's export to wrap the div in a
link.

At the moment it's quite hacky - it relies on browsers correcting
malformed XML and I'd desperately like to fix this but I'm not sure how.

Example:
#+begin_src html

Python


https://github.com/karlicoss/orgparse";>
https://cdn.iconscout.com/icon/free/png-256/python-14-569257.png"; 
alt="python-14-569257.png">
 # malformed here


orgparse creates a tree from an org file.
 # malformed here



#+end_src

I'll happily lay the groundwork in Worg's CSS.

All the best,

this is more like: the main website should contain as little as

as possible.

We need to enhance worg css to make this possible.

I think for handling tiles and other fancy display layouts, it is
safer to use a minimal css framework.  I like https://bulma.io a lot,
but as long as it is CSS-only, it's good.

Then once this is done, we can let worg display tiles for some pages.

Is this something you would like to explore?

My mental model was with the website as 'first class' information,
and Worg as a 'secondary' wiki. This does seem like the ideal content to
be collaboratively updated though.

I would. The one other reason I lent towards the website initially
though was because I felt that this could be best served by a tiled
layout similar to https://orgmode.tecosaur.com/tools.html - which
currently relies on some CSS not in Worg. That could be added inline,
but that feels slightly hacky to me somehow.

Let me know if there's a particular direction you'd like me to take with
this.

Other than that, I don't believe I have an account on code.orgmode.org
yet --- that could be helpful :P

I think it would be best to store this information on Worg rather than
on the website: the website should be for quasi-immutable things (with
only a few people having write access), while worg is a perfect place
for things that can be collaboratively updated.

Would you volunteer to build the list on Worg?  It does not need to be
complete, just regularily updated.

Thanks!

I'd happily add that to my website revamp, in a similar manner to the

Indeed, such a list would be helpful.

Is anyone interested in working on this?

Hi Bastien,

Thanks! I agree it would be nice to have a comprehensive list of org
exporters in worg - although usually a search for "org export "
points in the correct direction :)

I added a link to https://orgmode.org/worg/org-tools/

Links to Org external exporters should perhaps have a dedicated
section and/or page, especially if/when we will move some out of
Org's core.

Thanks for writing and sharing this!

[Announcement] New package ox-leanpub

2020-06-14 Thread Diego Zamboni
Hi everyone,

I'm happy to announce that my package ox-leanpub is now available in MELPA.

Ox-leanpub contains Org-mode export backends to produce books in the
correct structure and format for publication with Leanpub
(https://leanpub.com/). It allows you to write your book entirely in
Org mode, and completely manages the production of the necessary files
for Leanpub to be able to render your book. I use this package to
publish most of my books published on Leanpub
(https://leanpub.com/u/zzamboni).

You can find full documentation at
https://github.com/zzamboni/ox-leanpub (original source is kept in
GitLab, but the documentation is more readable in GitHub).

Please check it out! Let me know if you have any feedback or questions.

I would also like to thank everyone in this community for your support
and willingness to answer my questions :)

All the best,
--Diego
