Is there an open source alternative to the Atlas Platform that has similar features? Thanks!

  Take a look at Softcover (http://www.softcover.io/ http://www.softcover.io/), which is a 100% open-source ebook production toolchain used to produce the Ruby on Rails Tutorial book (among others).

  There is a simple build process using asciidoctor-pdf and asciidoctor-epub that can also create all 3 formats locally. The Atlas ones are just a little more professional looking, but the asciidoctor chain is still really great. https://github.com/progit/progit2#how-to-generate-the-book https://github.com/progit/progit2#how-to-generate-the-book
