@figsoda:matrix.orgfigsodau might also be able to run some nix implementation in wasm like snix17:09:43
@hsjobeki:matrix.orghsjobekiunified js let's you build whatever you want for markdown. If it's a web page it uses JavaScript anyways. Remark, rehype plugins are the both tools that I would use to build this myself. Noweb has some benefits but it seems pretty niche. Unified.js is the defacto standard in frontend for processing markdown. (Afaik) If it's just for evaluation you can call snix as mentioned via wasm directly in the browser. 17:20:21

After publishing the new vision for the documentation team, @hsjobeki and I received several requests from people asking how to get in touch with the documentation team and how to help make that vision a reality.

So today, long overdue, we’re happy to announce a new series of Nix documentation meetings.

We’re starting with a one-hour meeting every two weeks on Wednesdays. This is just a starting point: Expect the schedule to be adjusted based on participation and interest in the future.

Whether you’re interested in the new vision, want to talk about specific documentation issues, or would simply like to sit down with us and work heads-down on improving the documentation, you’re warmly invited to join, say hi, and get involved.

Meeting details

When: Bi-weekly Wednesdays, 4pm CEST, starting tomorrow :scream:
Where: https://jitsi.lassul.us/nixos-documentation-team
Meeting notes: Meeting Notes

FYI: You can also subscribe to the official NixOS Google Calendar or the ICS feed to be notified about future documentation team meetings.
