Tanagra
Markdown Book Pipeline Tool
Tanagra is a documentation pipeline tool for building a template for a markdown-based book, generating a directory and file structure based on an outline, and then converting markdown files into HTML, PDF, and EPUB books using Pandoc.
In short, Tanagra works like this:
- You tell Tanagra where you want to start a project and it creates the necessary files.
- You create an outline and Tanagra converts that outline into a directory and file structure for that book.
- You write your book in markdown.
- When you’re done with your book, you tell Tanagra the format (PDF, EPUB, or HTML) in which you’d like to publish your book.
- You distribute your book to lucky readers! :)

“Tah-NAH-grah”
It’s pronounced tah-NAH-grah as in “Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra.” Hear it pronounced: The Enterprise meets the Tamarians
Why Tanagra? Well, it’s a great episode and it’s about learning to communicate and translate. The Tanagra script is about facilitating communication and translating one format into another.
