Comment on Show HN: An interactive kids' book written in Emacs Org Mode

Comments

Org mode never ceases to amaze me. Great work, I'll see what my kids think of the book

I've been in love with Emacs and Org Mode for over a decade mostly as a user, only writing basic Elisp in my .emacs initialization file. Writing this book made me even more enamored with Emacs as I learned to write a few packages, and spent much time browsing the Org source code, especially around the export engine [1]. It was useful going through one.el source code as well [2]

And, thank you!
