Combined with federated APIs and extensibility and modularity, Jupyter Book and MyST documents enable cross-project references, making scientific knowledge more interconnected.

We're also excited to lean into "content as structured data". MyST documents are represented as a structured abstract syntax tree (AST), making them canonical and machine-readable. This enables powerful transformations and remixing across projects.

There are several core principles behind this project:

simple to use yet extensible
machine-readable content
modular & composable docs
federated APIs
computation as first-class content

Currently we are using markdown-it for the parsing, switching to remark will fix a lot for these positions especially. We currently don't have column information anywhere either.

Hopefully a 2025 project!

Great job by @row1.ca at the #AGU24 #OpenScience pavillion, discussing @mystmd.org and the future of scientific publishing
