history
Project history and usage
Pandemics is an opinionated Markdown publishing framework that uses Pandoc to produce styled PDF, HTML, Word, and other document formats.
Project history
Pandemics was created as a simplified Markdown publishing framework built around Pandoc. Its official documentation presents recipes that combine templates, filters, and conversion options for common manuscript-publishing tasks.
Adoption history
The official tutorial documents command-line, Docker, and Atom workflows, reflecting an effort to make the publishing pipeline accessible beyond direct Pandoc command-line users.
How it is used
Users write Markdown, optionally select a recipe or output format in YAML front matter, and run `pandemics publish`. Generated documents are placed in a neighboring `pandemics` directory by default.
Why package nerds care
Pandemics packages a curated layer of Pandoc templates, filters, and options into a simpler publishing workflow. It is notable as an opinionated document-production frontend rather than another markup converter.
Timeline
- Documented distribution: The project offered command-line, Docker, and Atom-based publishing workflows.
- Current design: Pandoc remains the core converter beneath recipe-driven publishing.
