"I'm interested in all kinds of astronomy."
Fine, I made my own Markdown to HTML document generator (with Blackjack and hookers):

https://github.com/v-p-b/sugardocy

It takes a single MD file, and outputs a single, self-contained HTML file without downloading the kitchen sink.

Contributions are welcome, esp. if you have better taste and frontend skills than I do.

@chungyc @alios @troed That's what I'm trying to do rn, and I will probably get there at some point, but what I'm looking for is a complete solution.

@mcc in several ways - though not all - I would argue that documentation is the _only_ technology, in that it advances the state of the art of what is known, can be constructed, can be built upon, and can be abstracted and generalized.

Without documentation, a new invention is just a device: interesting, perhaps so much so that it sparks inspiration in someone else to understand it, but it goes little further than that until it is documented in a way intended to communicate its key insights.

@hibbittsdesign This is a great service but I'm looking for something completely offline.

@troed @singe Yes, in case of Pandoc I think a nice collection of unified styles would be great. pandoc-templates.org is a good start, but each template works differently as they are maintained by several people for several purposes.

@alios @troed I think static site generators are overkill for my use-case: I don't want to edit config files or maintain a Git repo. The optimal solution would be a command line utility that takes a style name and one .md file and outputs one HTML file, simple as that.

@singe Pandoc would be great but I'm yet to find a project that provides nice styles *and* documents how to use them with Pandoc.

I need a tool that can generate self-contained HTML pages from #Markdown with different styles.

markdown-styles looks really close, but I wonder if there are alternatives (preferably not requiring NodeJS):

@b0rk Not exactly, but a privileged binary can take it granted that `ls` always executes `/bin/ls`, but runs an attacker provided executable instead (very stupid, but real example). Now this usually happens without switching a "PATH provider", but my gut feeling is that having "one central place" for PATH processing would've prevented at least some of these issues.

@b0rk I think exploits passing e.g. PATH=. instead of the expected system value (e.g. via misconfigured sudo) can be called a "problem" :)

I always find it a bit surprising that "looking up executables in PATH" isn't implemented in one central place (there are at least 3 implementations that I use regularly: in libc, my shell, in Go, and probably more that I don't know about)

it's a weird thing because there are actually many different implementations, but I think in general the implementations act similarly enough that you can pretend there's only 1 implementation, I've never actually run into a problem caused by this

@virtualabs I have no clue but GH discussions are regularly answered by devs, usually worth to ask there too.
