<h1>Producing an Ebook, Step by Step</h1>
<p>This guide is meant to take you step-by-step through the creation of a complete Standard Ebook. While it might seem a little long, most of the text is a description of how to use various automated scripts. It can take just an hour or two for an experienced producer to produce a draft ebook for proofreading (depending on the complexity of the ebook, of course).</p>
<p>Our toolset is GNU/Linux-based, and producing an ebook from scratch currently requires working knowledge of the epub file format and of Unix-like systems like Mac or Linux.</p>
<p>Our toolset doesnt yet work natively on Windows, but there are <a href="https://www.howtogeek.com/170870/5-ways-to-run-linux-software-on-windows/">many ways to run Linux from within Windows</a>, including <a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10">one that is directly supported by Microsoft themselves</a>.</p>
