If it’s interesting to someone I have a similar pipeline I used to write and deploy my book The Security Engineer Handbook [1].

I basically wrote everything using markdown files, and a pdf/epub/mobi is automatically generated from the folder using a Github Action. The action will also modify the date of the last update on the webpage, which gets deployed via cloudflare pages (although github pages could have been used). On the other side Stripe handles the payments (No server side code for me) and zapier detects new customers and sends the artifacts by email.

It’s magical :) the next time I want to write a book I’ll focus purely on the content and everything else will be taken care of automagically.
