Conclusion

Hopefully this mini-book has allowed you to kick the tires with jupyter-book and decide if it fits your needs. At this point you should be able to rename your repo/book and start writing your own book immediately! Here are a couple possible next steps:

  1. Build both the html and pdf outputs to ensure everything still looks as you would expect

    • HTML: jupyter-book build book

    • PDF: jupyter-book build book --builder pdflatex

  2. Catch up on what was omitted in this mini-book. Jupyter-book can do much more than what was shown here, this mini-book intentionally just focused on the minimum subset needed for writing. Consider learning more about:

  3. The official jupyter-book documentation is superb, a good read through will help you make the best use of jupyter-book

  4. There are a lot of possible ways to configure jupyter-book, consider fine tuning your configuration

  5. Learn to collaborate with git. For the sake of simplicity I didn’t delve into the git workflow. Collaborating with git is however a major benefit of working with text based files and the jupyter ecosystem.

  6. Give the core team a big thanks for making jupyter-book possible!
