<p><strong>mdBook</strong> is a command line tool and Rust crate to create books using Markdown files. It's very similar to Gitbook but written in <a href="http://www.rust-lang.org">Rust</a>.</p>
<p>What you are reading serves as an example of the output of mdBook and at the same time as high-level docs.</p>
<p>mdBook is free and open source, you can find the source code on <a href="https://github.com/azerupi/mdBook">Github</a>. Issues and feature requests can be posted on the <a href="https://github.com/azerupi/mdBook/issues">Github Issue tracker</a>.</p>
<a class="header" href="README.html#api-docs" id="api-docs"><h2>API docs</h2></a>
<p>Alongside this book you can also read the <a href="mdbook/index.html">API docs</a> generated by Rustdoc if you would like
to use mdBook as a crate or write a new renderer and need a more low-level overview.</p>
<a class="header" href="README.html#license" id="license"><h2>License</h2></a>
<p>mdBook, all the source code, is released under the <a href="https://www.mozilla.org/MPL/2.0/">Mozilla Public License v2.0</a></p>
