This is my favorite syntax for technical writing, but unfortunately the only complete implementation is in Python. There are half-finished JS projects (last I checked) but nothing else. I really wish they were complete so we could use this in more places. I opted for Djot (https://djot.net) as a second-place alternative with support for many more languages. My use case was attempting a Sphinx alternative in TypeScript. (Link for the curious: https://steveasleep.com/djockey/) |

We have some unfortunate naming that follows from history. The Python tools you're referring to are a distinct project. The Jupyter Book project saw the development of many of those tools, and is now pivotting to a new engine MyST-MD that this article links to!
Why do you say that these tools aren't complete? Whilst we are certainly not "done", these tools are being used in many places, such as https://proceedings.scipy.org/2024
Looking forward to hearing from you!
