A few months late on my part, but here are John MacFarlane’s reflections on twenty years of creating and maintaining Pandoc. The first post I wrote about Pandoc was in 2012, a scant fourteen years ago. (Hard to believe it, but it used to be useful to write out command line invocations for others to learn from.) It is safe to say that anything I’ve ever published, and practically everything I’ve thought, at least professionally, started life as a Markdown file. And it started as a Markdown file because I knew I could get it out into a webpage, a beautifully typeset PDF, or (god forbid) a Word document thanks to Pandoc. Via: andrewgoldstone.com
