For #Eleventy fans: I’m curious if anyone is using 11ty to output eBook files? i.e. strict XHTML and perhaps some basic CSS. Specifically, I’d like to use some of my Cybercultural files in 11ty (i.e. the Markdown files for various articles) and turn those into XHTML so that I can edit in Calibre as an eBook project. Just curious if anyone is doing something similar already. #11ty cc @11ty

@ricmac @11ty The closest to what you’re describing is implementing a HTML to ePUB flow for https://github.com/danburzo/percollate, are you thinking just .md to .xhtml, or the whole .epub shebang?
@ricmac @11ty If it’s just .md to .xhtml, I would implement a valid XHTML template for the shell, and I’d output the HTML content as XHTML with an Eleventy filter, roughly:
```
import { JSDOM } from 'jsdom';
config.addFilter('toxhtml', str => {
const { window } = new JSDOM(str);
return new window.XMLSerializer().serializeToString(window.document.body);
});
```
(written from memory, details may vary)
@ricmac (percollate has the non-negotiable Mozilla Readability pass, I don’t think it would be a good fit to turn .md/.html to an exact .epub)
