You might want to take a look at Leanpub (https://leanpub.com https://leanpub.com) if you haven't already. Seems like it may suit you.

- capnrefsmmat 13y agoUnfortunately, Leanpub exclusively uses Markdown, which doesn't support things like using a BibTeX bibliography for references. I also don't think there's a way to customize the design of the print book, apart from cover images and such. I'm writing using reStructuredText and Sphinx because they give me a bibliography, an index, full-text search, cross-referencing, custom environments (e.g. boxes for examples, tips, etc.), and all sorts of other cool features. For example, if I needed matplotlib plots, I can embed the code in my documents and Sphinx will generate them. I'd immediately put the book on Leanpub if I could get some of these features. A Leanpub using a customized Sphinx would be incredibly useful for people writing textbooks.
