Library Design

Key Ideas:

  • Custom composed excel documents require a markdown capability to design and update

  • HTML is an exceptional markdown language for this:

    • Native support for styling of blocks of content

    • Commonly understood semantics for basic tags

    • syntax for adding style and attributes to blocks

    • Existing templating dialects

    • Extremely good support for table design

  • Templating languages exist to dynamically generate HTML from data
