1 Introduction

Bookup1 is a set of templates, scripts and workflows for book authoring in HTML, PDF and other formats.

It’s a modular software component based on Bookdown.

It was created to solve the problem of editing many books simultaneously: Bookup helps to keep an uniform scheme instead of having to implement and fix funcionalities across many repositories in parallel.

Bookup makes book production similar to working with other codebases.

But Bookup is very opinionated. You can understand it as an specific setup of Bookdown and other software, plus conventions and heuristics tuned to an specific use case.

Bookup code is available at https://0xacab.org/rhatto/bookup.
