If you follow the comment trail back up, in the context of this conversation, static means PDF, hard constraints of physical page layouts; dynamic means HTML, digital, no hard layout constraints.
- jessriedel 3y agoI had read all those comments. What I'm saying that is that re-flowable text is just in a very different class than web pages that auto-translate the text, have animations, or run arbitrary code.
- Calavar 3y agoYes, that's what dynamic means in a frontend dev context. This is a typesetting and document layout context.
- jessriedel 3y agoNo, Nota is not just typesetting and document layout. Things like dynamical code examples, auto-translation, advanced tool-tips, and reader-customizable notation are intended to set it apart from predecessors. In other words, it is different precisely because it does things that would be considered dynamic to a front-end dev.
