## Pollen: the book is a program [![Build Status](https://github.com/mbutterick/pollen/workflows/CI/badge.svg)](https://github.com/mbutterick/pollen/actions)
A book-publishing system written in [Racket](http://racket-lang.org). This is the software I use to publish & maintain my web-based books [Beautiful Racket](http://beautifulracket.com), [Practical Typography](http://practicaltypography.com), and [Typography for Lawyers](http://typographyforlawyers.com).
If you think documents should be programmable, youll love it.
If not, you can move along.
Pollen gives you access to a full programming language (Racket) with a text-based syntax that makes it easy to embed code within your documents.
