About GitBook

A tool for building documentation and books from Markdown or AsciiDoc files stored in Git repositories.

GitBook takes Markdown or AsciiDoc content organized in a Git repository and generates static websites or ebooks (PDF, ePub, MOBI). It supports multi-language books, glossaries, templating with variables, content includes, and a plugin system. It is aimed at developers and technical writers who want to produce structured documentation or books from plain-text source files.

Where to start

Initialize a new book with a SUMMARY.md defining its structure, then use the command-line tool to serve or build the output. Books can also be published and hosted on the GitBook platform.
