GitBook Introduction

Chapter 5: Other Notes

  • GitBook editor uses node-webkit, which is a very, very cool program. (Use the Develop > Open Tools command to prove it)
  • GitBook has flaws. Clearly its not the best solution, however its a great starting point. Interactive documents are the way of the future.
    • GitBook is a Tree + Viewport (lets call it a treeport)
    • Other examples of treeports:
      • File/folder explorer
      • Wiki
      • CMS
      • Evernote
      • Gmail
      • Our BrandSite concept
    • I feel like a better solution is sorely needed, and wouldn't be that hard to create.
