1 What is BookML?

BookML is book(down) + (LaTeXLaTeX)ML.

Bookdown is a popular RMarkdown-to-HTML package.

LaTeXMLLaTeXML is a powerful LaTeXLaTeX-to-HTML converter, powering arXiv.

BookML slaps a bookdown-style output onto LaTeXMLLaTeXML, and:

• •
  ​

  automates all steps: put LaTeXLaTeX in, get HTML out

• •
  ​

  improves the accessibility (better contrast, ARIA attributes for screen readers^new)

• •
  ​

  converts EPS, PDF figures to SVG (it may sound easy!)

• •
  ​

  aligns LaTeXMLLaTeXML and MathJax

• •
  ​

  produces SCORM packages (easiest way to get HTML on a VLE, little more than a zip file)

• •
  ​

  interleave HTML with content (foldable environments, videos, …)

• •
  ​

  improves LaTeXMLLaTeXML accuracy when possible (not very often)
