Show, Don't Tell
summary
O'Reilly builds a git-based publishing platform called Atlas CMS that compiles one set of source files into print PDFs, ebooks and an enhanced web edition that embeds live code. The project demonstrates the Web Audio API with a small synthesizer prototype that took days to write and runs inline, supports embedded demos via JSBin and iframes, and syncs reader annotations back into the source so comments appear in the manuscript workflow.
