Dave Thomas, author of The Pragmatic Programmer,
The Manifesto for Agile Software Development, Programming Ruby,
Agile Web Development with Rails, Programming Elixir, Simplicity,
and co-founder of the Pragmatic Bookshelf, speaks with SE Radio
host Gavin Henry about building infrastructure for eBooks. They
discuss what an eBook is, the various formats, what
infrastructure is needed to build them, how an author writes an
book, the history of the Pragmatic Bookshelf, how they have
evolved, how to handle links within eBooks, why humans are so
important in the writing process, and why AI can help with your
writing -- once you've written your content. Thomas discusses
PDFs, eBooks, Mobi files, ePub files, CI/CD pipelines, WYSWYG,
Markdown files, Pragmatic Markup Language, embedding code, AI
agents, images, printing PDFs, JVMs, Java, jRuby, and how
Markdown won the plain text writing format wars.
