What's the best way to get up and running with something like this that's really easy to maintain?



He actually uses Gitbook https://www.gitbook.com/

I’ve been doing the same too https://www.aizatto.com/why-gitbook


Thanks for sharing both, but especially the second link.

There you said: "Organizing a lot of pages is difficult, even if nested..."

Any chance you've done, or know of an article titled something like: "GitBook - If I Knew Then What I Know Now"?

The idea is ultra-intriguing. But before getting started it would certainly help to not make the same mistakes others have already made.

GitBook is nice and I would recommend that if you want something that works good for you out of the box. I personally write markdown files with typora and then publish that to my own notes setup, which is simply mkdocs and some tweaks.


I thought the fact that GitBooks has search is a nice and necessary touch. I'm going to have to revisit the static site / blog generators. It's prefer to publish to GL or GH, as well as (for that I have in mind) be able to accept PRs.


I just throw everything in to text files, .pngs or .pdfs in a synced folder and find stuff by searching. One day I will try to organize.


This is what I do but that "one day" never seems to come...


Same here. I pull references out all the time though.

I figure at some point some subjects can be turned in to articles. Good retirement hobby I imagine.
