Thx @choldgraf!! I have no further edits at this point. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
This is awesome, thanks @choldgraf for putting this together and taking a pass on the whole website. Super excited to elevate MyST over the coming years - and so excited to have Curvenote be a partner of the ExecutableBooks community. 🚀
| Over the years we have seen interest in MyST raise considerably - it allows authors and researchers to express themselves more efficiently than traditional source text languages like LaTeX. | ||
| MyST has also become [a staple in the Python documentation ecosystem](https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/markdown.html), and is the backbone of authoring content in [Jupyter Book](https://jupyterbook.org). | ||

🚀 Another thread summarizing the post is here, and retweeted from the Thanks @choldgraf & team, excited about this. :) |
This is a blog post announcing MyST as a standalone project from Jupyter Book, as well as announcing the recent MyST-JS efforts that @rowanc1 @ co have been leading. Its goal is to highlight major aspects of the work we've been doing over the past few months, and give an idea of how these projects will continue to evolve moving forward.
It touches on some of the discussions in #838 as well as #493 , though not sure it closes either of them. I'll leave it to @rowanc1 to decide when #838 can be closed.
Please provide feedback and suggestions on the content! (cc in particular @rowanc1 since Curvenote is mentioned in this post, as well as @gregcaporaso and @jstac who have been involved in setting up the collaboration over the past several months).
To do
Other things that are changed
I took the opportunity to make a few other updates to our blog:
dirhtmlbloginstead ofupdatestoolspage to reflect new tools and links.This will break old links to our blog, but it was non-trivial to redirect if we use
dirhtmlnow. However I figured that because we haven't had many posts historically, it wouldn't be a huge problem if we had a one-time break. Let me know if anybody strongly opposes that though.
