A fast text processor & publishing toolchain for converting AsciiDoc to HTML5, DocBook & more. Asciidoctor is a fast, open source, Ruby-based text processor for parsing AsciiDoc® into a document model and converting it to output formats such as HTML 5, DocBook 5, manual pages, PDF, EPUB 3, and other formats. Asciidoctor also has an ecosystem of extensions, converters, build plugins, and tools to help you author and publish content written in AsciiDoc. Asciidoctor reads the AsciiDoc source, and converts it to publishable formats, such as HTML 5. Asciidoctor provides built-in converters for three output formats by default: HTML 5, DocBook 5, and man page (short for manual page). Additional converters, such as PDF and EPUB 3, are provided by separate gems. Asciidoctor also provides an out-of-the-box HTML experience complete with a default stylesheet and built-in integrations.
