I do use Sphinx in the backend, which I love as a tool! I've created NoTex.ch because I love the PDF quality of LaTex. But both these tools are a little difficult for non-computer-science people to use. I wanted to give non-tech people access to the publication quality of these tools without requiring (in-depth) knowledge of how to use them. And hence the name "No Tex". :)
- slacka 12y agoCould you please elaborate? How does NoTex compare to other TeX web tools like http://fiduswriter.org/ http://fiduswriter.org/ or even http://arachnoid.com/latex http://arachnoid.com/latex Your front page doesn't do a good job of describing its features. Also curious how you put it together from Sphinx?
- hsk81 12y agoFor the elaboration just go read https://notex.ch/overview/ https://notex.ch/overview/ -- the other two tools I've never heard of so I can't really compare. The front page description is indeed minimal, which is something I might improve in future: But since it is open source, you're more than welcome to send me a corresponding pull request. ;-) For now read the forum, blog and play around yourself to figure out its features.
- hsk81 12y agoW.r.t. Sphinx: Conceptually it's really nothing that fancy, just some Python glue code that takes the data structures out of my web application's data structures, and puts it together such that Sphinx can understand it: The only interesting part might be that there is an internal front- and backend separation [based on ZeroMQ] which helps me to create workers which do the actual conversion.
