+
+## mdBook 0.4.8
+[fcceee4...b592b10](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/compare/fcceee4...b592b10)
+
+### Added

+  [#1389](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1389)
+- Pressing Escape will remove the `?highlight` argument from the URL.

+  directory instead of in the `src` directory.
+  [#1432](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1432)
+- A custom renderer that sets the `command` to a relative path now interprets
+  the relative path relative to the book root. Previously it was inconsistent
+  based on the platform (either relative to the current directory, or relative

+  are still supported with a deprecation warning.

+
+### Fixed

+  highlight all of the words.

+- Properly handle `<` and `>` characters in the table of contents.
+  [#1376](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1376)
+- Fixed to properly serialize the `build` table in the config, which prevented
+  setting it in the API.
+  [#1378](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1378)
+
+## mdBook 0.4.5
+[eaa6914...f66df09](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/compare/eaa6914...f66df09)
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed XSS in the search page.
+  [CVE-2020-26297](https://groups.google.com/g/rustlang-security-announcements/c/3-sO6of29O0)

+  [#1323](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1323)
+
+## mdBook 0.4.3
+[9278b83...4df9ec9](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/compare/9278b83...4df9ec9)
+
+### Added
+- Added `output.html.cname` option to emit a `CNAME` file which is used by
+  GitHub Pages to know which domain is being used.
+  [#1311](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1311)
+
+### Changed
+- `mdbook test` no longer stops on the first test failure, but instead will
+  run all the tests.
+  [#1313](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1313)
+- Removed the `local` font source for Source Code Pro, as the locally
+  installed font may not render properly on FireFox on macOS.
+  [#1307](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1307)
+
+### Fixed
+- Added newline to end of `.nojekyll` file.

+[649f355...9278b83](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/compare/649f355...9278b83)
+
+### Changed
+- The "show hidden lines" icon has changed from the "expand" icon to an "eye".
+  [#1281](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1281)
+- Updated highlight.js. This adds several languages: c, c-like (effectively
+  cpp), csharp (replaces cs), kotlin, less, lua, php-template, plaintext,
+  python-repl, r, scss, typescript.
+  [#1277](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1277)
+
+### Fixed
+- Fixed SUMMARY links that contained newlines.
+  [#1291](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1291)
+- Fixed SUMMARY links that contain `%20` spaces.
+  [#1293](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1293)
+- Fixed favicon so that if only the png or svg is overridden, the other is not
+  automatically included in the `<link>` tag.
+  [#1272](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1272)
+
+## mdBook 0.4.1
+[d4df7e7...649f355](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/compare/d4df7e7...649f355)
+
+### Changed
+- Removed several outdated dev-dependencies.
+  [#1267](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1267)

+  [#1265](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1265)
+- Don't include the default favicon if only one of the PNG or SVG is overridden.
+  [#1266](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1266)
+
+## mdBook 0.4.0
+[99ecd4f...d4df7e7](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/compare/99ecd4f...d4df7e7)
+
+### Breaking Changes
+- Several of the changes in the release have altered the public API of the
+  mdbook library.
+- Many dependencies have been updated or replaced.
+  This also removes the `--websocket-hostname` and `--websocket-port` from
+  the `serve` command.
+  [#1211](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1211)
+- A new "404" page is now automatically rendered. This requires knowledge of
+  the base URL of your site to work properly. If you decide to use this as
+  your 404 page, you should set the `site-url` setting in the book
+  configuration so mdbook can generate the links correctly. Alternatively you
+  can disable the 404 page generation, or set up your own 404 handling in your
+  web server.
+  [#1221](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1221)
+- The `debug` and `output` features have been removed as they were unused.
+  [#1211](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1211)
+- If you are using customized themes, you may want to consider setting the
+  `preferred-dark-theme` config setting, as it now defaults to "navy".
+  [#1199](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1199)
+- "Playpen" has been renamed to "playground". This is generally backwards
+  compatible for users, but `{{#playpen}}` will now display warnings. This may
+  impact books that have modified the "playpen" elements in the theme.
+  [#1241](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1241)
+- If a renderer is not installed, it is now treated as an error. If you want
+  the old behavior of ignoring missing renderers, set the `optional` setting
+  for that renderer.
+  [#1122](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1122)
+- If you have a custom favicon, you may need to look into adding an SVG
+  version, otherwise the default SVG icon will be displayed.
+  [#1230](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1230)
+
+### Added
+- Added a new `[rust]` configuration section to `book.toml`, which allows
+  setting the default edition with `edition = "2018"`.
+  [#1163](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1163)
+- Renderers can now be marked as `optional`, so that they will be ignored if
+  the renderer is not installed.
+  [#1122](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1122)
+- Added `head.hbs` to allow adding content to the `<head>` section in HTML.
+  [#1206](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1206)
+- Added "draft chapters". These are chapters listed without a link to indicate
+  content yet to be written.
+  [#1153](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1153)
+- Added "parts" to split a book into different sections. Headers can be added
+  to `SUMMARY.md` to signify different sections.
+  [#1171](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1171)
+- Added generation of a "404" page for handling missing pages and broken links.
+  [#1221](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1221)

+- Added an SVG favicon that works with light and dark colors schemes.
+  [#1230](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1230)
+
+### Changed
+- Changed default Rust attribute of `allow(unused_variables)` to `allow(unused)`.
+  [#1195](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1195)
+- Fonts are now served locally instead of from the Google Fonts CDN. The
+  `copy-fonts` option was added to disable this if you want to supply your own
+  fonts.
+  [#1188](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1188)
+- Switched the built-in webserver for the `serve` command to a new
+  implementation. This results in some internal differences in how websockets
+  are handled, which removes the separate websocket options. This should also
+  make it easier to serve multiple books at once.
+  [#1211](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1211)
+- The default dark theme is now "navy".
+  [#1199](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1199)
+- "Playpen" has been renamed to "playground", matching the actual name of the
+  service which was renamed many years ago.
+  [#1241](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1241)
+
+### Fixed
+- Links with the `+` symbol should now work.
+  [#1208](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1208)
+- The `MDBOOK_BOOK` environment variable now correctly allows overriding the
+  entire book configuration.
+  [#1207](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1207)
+- The sidebar can no longer be dragged outside of the window.
+  [#1229](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1229)
+- Hide the Rust Playground "play" button for `no_run` code samples.
+  [#1249](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1249)
+- Fixed the `--dest-dir` command-line option for the `serve` and `watch`
+  commands.
+  [#1228](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1228)
+- Hotkey handlers are now disabled in `text` input fields (for example, typing
+  `S` in a custom text input field).
+  [#1244](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1244)
+

+- `MDBook::execute_build_process` is now publicly accessible in the API so
+  that plugins can more easily initiate the build process.
+  [#1099](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1099)
+
+### Changed
+- Use a different color for Ayu theme's highlighting for Rust attributes (uses

+  [#1133](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1133)
+- Adjusted spacing of sidebar entries.
+  [#1137](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1137)

+- Fixed the page name if the book didn't have a title to not be prefixed with ` - `.
+  [#1145](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1145)
+- HTML attributes `rel=next` and `rel=previous` are now supported in "wide"
+  mode (previously they were only set in narrow mode).
+  [#1150](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1150)
+- Prevent recursive copies when the destination directory is contained in the
+  source directory.
+  [#1135](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1135)

+
+## mdBook 0.3.2
+[9cd47eb...2b649fe](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/compare/9cd47eb...2b649fe)

+  `.gitignore`.
+  [#1044](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1044)
+- Added automatic dark-theme detection based on the CSS `prefers-color-scheme`
+  feature. This may be enabled by setting `output.html.preferred-dark-theme`
+  to your preferred dark theme.
+  [#1037](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1037)
+- Added `rustdoc_include` preprocessor. This makes it easier to include
+  portions of an external Rust source file. The rest of the file is hidden,
+  but the user may expand it to see the entire file, and will continue to work
+  with `mdbook test`.
+  [#1003](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1003)
+- Added Ctrl-Enter shortcut to the playpen editor to automatically run the
+  sample.
+  [#1066](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1066)

+
+### Changed
+- Use standard `scrollbar-color` CSS along with webkit extension
+  [#816](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/816)
+- The renderer build directory is no longer deleted before the renderer is
+  run. This allows a backend to cache results between runs.
+  [#985](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/985)
+- Next/prev links now highlight on hover to indicate it is clickable.
+  [#994](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/994)
+- Increase padding of table headers.
+  [#824](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/824)
+- Errors in `[output.html]` config are no longer ignored.
+  [#1033](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1033)
+- Updated highlight.js for syntax highlighting updates (primarily to add
+  async/await to Rust highlighting).
+  [#1041](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1041)
+- Raised minimum supported rust version to 1.35.
+  [#1003](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1003)
+- Hidden code lines are no longer dynamically removed via JavaScript, but
+  instead managed with CSS.
+  [#846](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/846)
+  [#1065](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1065)
+- Changed the default font set for the ACE editor, giving preference to

+- Windows 32-bit releases are no longer published.
+  [#1071](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1071)

+- Fixed error message when running `clean` multiple times.
+  [#1055](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1055)

+  [#1005](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1005)
+- Stop using `inline-block` for `inline code`, fixing selection highlighting
+  and some rendering issues.
+  [#1058](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1058)
+- Fix header auto-hide on browsers with momentum scrolling that allows
+  negative `scrollTop`.
+  [#1070](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/1070)

+[2c20c99...6cbc41d](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/compare/2c20c99...6cbc41d)
+
+### Added
+- Added an optional button to the top of the page which will link to a git
+  repository. Use the `git-repository-url` and `git-repository-icon` options
+  in the `[output.html]` section to enable it and set its appearance.
+  [#802](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/802)
+- Added a `default-theme` option to the `[output.html]` section.
+  [#804](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/804)
+
+### Changed
+- 💥 Header ID anchors no longer add an arbitrary `a` character for headers

+## mdBook 0.2.2 (2018-10-19)
+[7e2e095...2c20c99](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/compare/7e2e095...2c20c99)
+
+### Added
+- 🎉 Process-based custom preprocessors. See [the
+  docs](https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/for_developers/preprocessors.html)
+  for more.
+  [#792](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/792)
+
+- 🎉 Configurable preprocessors.
+
+  Added `build.use-default-preprocessors` boolean TOML key to allow disabling
+  the built-in `links` and `index` preprocessors.
+
+  Added `[preprocessor]` TOML tables to configure each preprocessor.
+
+  Specifying `[preprocessor.links]` or `[preprocessor.index]` will enable the
+  respective built-in preprocessor if `build.use-default-preprocessors` is
+  `false`.
+
+  Added `fn supports_renderer(&self, renderer: &str) -> bool` to the
+  `Preprocessor` trait to specify if the preprocessor supports the given
+  renderer. The default implementation always returns `true`.
+
+  `Preprocessor::run` now takes a book by value instead of a mutable
+  reference. It should return a `Book` value with the intended modifications.
+
+  Added `PreprocessorContext::renderer` to indicate the renderer being used.
+
+  [#658](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/658)
+  [#787](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/787)
+
+### Fixed

+  [#777](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/777)
+- Ensure section numbers are correctly incremented after a horizontal
+  separator
+  [#790](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/790)
+
+## mdBook 0.2.1 (2018-08-22)
+[91ffca1...7e2e095](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/compare/91ffca1...7e2e095)
+
+### Changed
+- Update to handlebars-rs 1.0
+  [#761](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/761)
+
+### Fixed
+- Fix table colors, broken by Stylus -> CSS transition
+  [#765](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/765)
+
+## mdBook 0.2.0 (2018-08-02)
+
+### Changed
+- 💥 This release changes how links are handled in mdBook. Previously, relative
+  links were interpreted relative to the book's root. In `0.2.0`+ links are
+  relative to the page they are in, and use the `.md` extension. This has [several
+  advantages](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/603#issue-166701447),
+  such as making links work in other markdown viewers like GitHub. You will
+  likely have to change links in your book to accommodate this change. For
+  example, a book with this layout:
+
+  ```
+  chapter_1/
+      section_1.md
+      section_2.md
+  SUMMARY.md
+  ```
+
+  Previously a link in `section_1.md` to `section_2.md` would look like this:
+  ```markdown
+  [section_2](chapter_1/section_2.html)
+  ```
+
+  Now it must be changed to this:
+  ```markdown
+  [section_2](section_2.md)
+  ```
+
+- 💥 `mdbook test --library-path` now accepts a comma-delimited list of
+  arguments rather than taking all following arguments. This makes it easier
+  to handle the trailing book directory argument without always needing to put
+  ` -- ` before it. Multiple instances of the option continue to be accepted:
+  `mdbook test -L foo -L bar`.
+
+- 💥 `mdbook serve` has some of its options renamed for clarity. See `mdbook
+  help serve` for details.
+
+- Embedded rust playpens now use the "stable" playground API.
+  [#754](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/754)
+
+### Fixed
+- Escaped includes (`\{{#include file.rs}}`) will now render correctly.
+  [f30ce01](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/commit/f30ce0184d71e342141145472bf816419d30a2c5)
+- `index.html` will now render correctly when the book's first section is
+  inside a subdirectory.
+  [#756](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/pull/756)

+### Code Quality
+
+We love code quality and Rust has some excellent tools to assist you with contributions.
+
+#### Formatting Code with rustfmt
+
+Before you make your Pull Request to the project, please run it through the `rustfmt` utility.
+This will ensure we have good quality source code that is better for us all to maintain.
+
+[rustfmt](https://github.com/rust-lang/rustfmt) has a lot more information on the project.
+The quick guide is
+
+1. Install it
+    ```
+    rustup component add rustfmt
+    ```
+1. You can now run `rustfmt` on a single file simply by...
+    ```
+    rustfmt src/path/to/your/file.rs
+    ```
+   ... or you can format the entire project with
+   ```
+   cargo fmt
+   ```
+   When run through `cargo` it will format all bin and lib files in the current crate.
+
+For more information, such as running it from your favourite editor, please see the `rustfmt` project. [rustfmt](https://github.com/rust-lang/rustfmt)
+
+
+#### Finding Issues with Clippy
+
+Clippy is a code analyser/linter detecting mistakes, and therefore helps to improve your code.
+Like formatting your code with `rustfmt`, running clippy regularly and before your Pull Request will
+help us maintain awesome code.
+
+The best documentation can be found over at [rust-clippy](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy)

+## Browser compatibility and testing
+
+Currently we don't have a strict browser compatibility matrix due to our limited resources.
+We generally strive to keep mdBook compatible with a relatively recent browser on all of the most major platforms.
+That is, supporting Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android.
+If possible, do your best to avoid breaking older browser releases.
+
+Any change to the HTML or styling is encouraged to manually check on as many browsers and platforms that you can.
+Unfortunately at this time we don't have any automated UI or browser testing, so your assistance in testing is appreciated.
+
+## Updating higlight.js
+
+The following are instructions for updating [highlight.js](https://highlightjs.org/).
+
+1. Clone the repository at <https://github.com/highlightjs/highlight.js>
+1. Check out a tagged release (like `10.1.1`).
+1. Run `npm install`
+1. Run `node tools/build.js :common apache armasm coffeescript d handlebars haskell http julia nginx properties r scala x86asm yaml`
+1. Compare the language list that it spits out to the one in [`syntax-highlighting.md`](https://github.com/camelid/mdBook/blob/master/guide/src/format/theme/syntax-highlighting.md). If any are missing, add them to the list and rebuild (and update these docs). If any are added to the common set, add them to `syntax-highlighting.md`.
+1. Copy `build/highlight.min.js` to mdbook's directory [`highlight.js`](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/blob/master/src/theme/highlight.js).
+1. Be sure to check the highlight.js [CHANGES](https://github.com/highlightjs/highlight.js/blob/main/CHANGES.md) for any breaking changes. Breaking changes that would affect users will need to wait until the next major release.
+1. Build mdbook with the new file and build some books with the new version and compare the output with a variety of languages to see if anything changes. The [test_book](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/tree/master/test_book) contains a chapter with many languages to examine.

 mdBook is a utility to create modern online books from Markdown files.
 
+Check out the **[User Guide]** for a list of features and installation and usage information.
+The User Guide also serves as a demonstration to showcase what a book looks like.
 
-## What does it look like?
-
-The [User Guide] for mdBook has been written in Markdown and is using mdBook to
-generate the online book-like website you can read. The documentation uses the
-latest version on GitHub and showcases the available features.
-
-## Installation
-
-There are multiple ways to install mdBook.
-
-1. **Binaries**
-
-   Binaries are available for download [here][releases]. Make sure to put the
-   path to the binary into your `PATH`.
-
-2. **From Crates.io**
-
-   This requires at least [Rust] 1.20 and Cargo to be installed. Once you have installed
-   Rust, type the following in the terminal:
-
-   ```
-   cargo install mdbook
-   ```
-
-   This will download and compile mdBook for you, the only thing left to do is
-   to add the Cargo bin directory to your `PATH`.
-
-   **Note for automatic deployment**
-
-   If you are using a script to do automatic deployments using Travis or
-   another CI server, we recommend that you specify a semver version range for
-   mdBook when you install it through your script!
-
-   This will constrain the server to install the latests **non-breaking**
-   version of mdBook and will prevent your books from failing to build because
-   we released a new version. For example:
-
-   ```
-   cargo install mdbook --vers "^0.1.0"
-   ```
-
-3. **From Git**  
-
-   The version published to crates.io will ever so slightly be behind the
-   version hosted here on GitHub. If you need the latest version you can build
-   the git version of mdBook yourself. Cargo makes this ***super easy***!
-
-   ```
-   cargo install --git https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/mdBook.git mdbook
-   ```
-
-   Again, make sure to add the Cargo bin directory to your `PATH`.
-
-4. **For Contributions**  
-
-   If you want to contribute to mdBook you will have to clone the repository on
-   your local machine:
-
-   ```
-   git clone https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/mdBook.git
-   ```
-
-   `cd` into `mdBook/` and run
-
-   ```
-   cargo build
-   ```
-
-   The resulting binary can be found in `mdBook/target/debug/` under the name
-   `mdBook` or `mdBook.exe`.
-
-
-## Usage
-
-mdBook will primarily be used as a command line tool, even though it exposes
-all its functionality as a Rust crate for integration in other projects.
-
-Here are the main commands you will want to run. For a more exhaustive
-explanation, check out the [User Guide].
-
-- `mdbook init`
-
-    The init command will create a directory with the minimal boilerplate to
-    start with.
-
-    ```
-    book-test/
-    ├── book
-    └── src
-        ├── chapter_1.md
-        └── SUMMARY.md
-    ```
-
-    `book` and `src` are both directories. `src` contains the markdown files
-    that will be used to render the output to the `book` directory.
-
-    Please, take a look at the [CLI docs] for more information and some neat tricks.
-
-- `mdbook build`
-
-    This is the command you will run to render your book, it reads the
-    `SUMMARY.md` file to understand the structure of your book, takes the
-    markdown files in the source directory as input and outputs static html
-    pages that you can upload to a server.
-
-- `mdbook watch`
-
-    When you run this command, mdbook will watch your markdown files to rebuild
-    the book on every change. This avoids having to come back to the terminal
-    to type `mdbook build` over and over again.
-
-- `mdbook serve`
-
-    Does the same thing as `mdbook watch` but additionally serves the book at
-    `http://localhost:3000` (port is changeable) and reloads the browser when a
-    change occurs.
-
-- `mdbook clean`
-
-    Delete directory in which generated book is located.
-
-
-### As a library
-
-Aside from the command line interface, this crate can also be used as a
-library. This means that you could integrate it in an existing project, like a
-web-app for example. Since the command line interface is just a wrapper around
-the library functionality, when you use this crate as a library you have full
-access to all the functionality of the command line interface with an easy to
-use API and more!
-
-See the [User Guide] and the [API docs] for more information.
-
-## Contributions
-
-Contributions are highly appreciated and encouraged! Don't hesitate to
-participate to discussions in the issues, propose new features and ask for
-help.
-
-If you are just starting out with Rust, there are a series of issus that are
-tagged [E-Easy] and **we will gladly mentor you** so that you can successfully
-go through the process of fixing a bug or adding a new feature! Let us know if
-you need any help.
-
-For more info about contributing, check out our [contribution guide] who helps
-you go through the build and contribution process!
-
-There is also a [rendered version][master-docs] of the latest API docs
-available, for those hacking on `master`.

-# mdBook
-
-**mdBook** is a command line tool and Rust crate to create books using Markdown files. It's very similar to Gitbook but written in [Rust](http://www.rust-lang.org).
-
-What you are reading serves as an example of the output of mdBook and at the same time as a high-level documentation.
-
-mdBook is free and open source, you can find the source code on [Github](https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/mdBook). Issues and feature requests can be posted on the [Github Issue tracker](https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/mdBook/issues).
-
-## API docs
-
-Alongside this book you can also read the [API docs](https://docs.rs/mdbook/*/mdbook/) generated by Rustdoc if you would like to use mdBook as a crate or write a new renderer and need a more low-level overview.

-# Command Line Tool
-
-mdBook can be used either as a command line tool or a [Rust crate](https://crates.io/crates/mdbook).
-Let's focus on the command line tool capabilities first.
-
-## Install
-
-### Pre-requisite
-
-mdBook is written in **[Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/)** and therefore needs to be compiled with **Cargo**, because we don't yet offer ready-to-go binaries. If you haven't already installed Rust, please go ahead and [install it](https://www.rust-lang.org/downloads.html) now.
-
-### Install Crates.io version
-
-Installing mdBook is relatively easy if you already have Rust and Cargo installed. You just have to type this snippet in your terminal:
-
-```bash
-cargo install mdbook
-```
-
-This will fetch the source code from [Crates.io](https://crates.io/) and compile it. You will have to add Cargo's `bin` directory to your `PATH`.
-
-Run `mdbook help` in your terminal to verify if it works. Congratulations, you have installed mdBook!
-
-
-### Install Git version
-
-The **[git version](https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/mdBook)** contains all the latest bug-fixes and features, that will be released in the next version on **Crates.io**, if you can't wait until the next release. You can build the git version yourself. Open your terminal and navigate to the directory of you choice. We need to clone the git repository and then build it with Cargo.
-
-```bash
-git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/mdBook.git
-cd mdBook
-cargo build --release
-```
-
-The executable `mdbook` will be in the `./target/release` folder, this should be added to the path.

@@ -1,51 +0,0 @@
-# The init command
-
-There is some minimal boilerplate that is the same for every new book. It's for this purpose
-that mdBook includes an `init` command.
-
-The `init` command is used like this:
-
-```bash
-mdbook init
-```
-
-When using the `init` command for the first time, a couple of files will be set up for you:
-```bash
-book-test/
-├── book
-└── src
-    ├── chapter_1.md
-    └── SUMMARY.md
-```
-
-- The `src` directory is were you write your book in markdown. It contains all the source files,
-configuration files, etc.
-
-- The `book` directory is where your book is rendered. All the output is ready to be uploaded
-to a server to be seen by your audience.
-
-- The `SUMMARY.md` file is the most important file, it's the skeleton of your book and is
-discussed in more detail [in another chapter](../format/summary.md)
-
-#### Tip: Generate chapters from SUMMARY.md
-
-When a `SUMMARY.md` file already exists, the `init` command will first parse it and generate the
-missing files according to the paths used in the `SUMMARY.md`. This allows you to think and create
-the whole structure of your book and then let mdBook generate it for you.
-
-#### Specify a directory
-
-The `init` command can take a directory as an argument to use as the book's
-root instead of the current working directory.
-
-```bash
-mdbook init path/to/book
-```
-
-#### --theme
-
-When you use the `--theme` flag, the default theme will be copied into a directory
-called `theme` in your source directory so that you can modify it.
-
-The theme is selectively overwritten, this means that if you don't want to overwrite a
-specific file, just delete it and the default file will be used.

-mdbook serve path/to/book
-```
-
-#### Server options
-
-`serve` has four options: the HTTP port, the WebSocket port, the HTTP hostname
-to listen on, and the hostname for the browser to connect to for WebSockets.
-
-For example: suppose you have an nginx server for SSL termination which has a
-public address of 192.168.1.100 on port 80 and proxied that to 127.0.0.1 on
-port 8000. To run use the nginx proxy do:
-
-```bash
-mdbook serve path/to/book -p 8000 -n 127.0.0.1 --websocket-hostname 192.168.1.100
-```
-
-If you were to want live reloading for this you would need to proxy the
-websocket calls through nginx as well from `192.168.1.100:<WS_PORT>` to
-`127.0.0.1:<WS_PORT>`. The `-w` flag allows for the websocket port to be
-configured.
-
-#### --open
-
-When you use the `--open` (`-o`) flag, mdbook will open the book in your
-your default web browser after starting the server.
-
-#### --dest-dir
-
-The `--dest-dir` (`-d`) option allows you to change the output directory for
-the book. If not specified it will default to the value of the
-`build.build-dir` key in `book.toml`, or to `./book` relative to the book's
-root directory.
-

-to be a complete HTTP server for a website.*

-file change. You could repeatedly issue `mdbook build` every time a file is
-changed. But using `mdbook watch` once will watch your files and will trigger
-a build automatically whenever you modify a file.

-# Running `mdbook` in Continuous Integration
-
-While the following examples use Travis CI, their principles should
-straightforwardly transfer to other continuous integration providers as well.
-
-## Ensuring Your Book Builds and Tests Pass
-
-Here is a sample Travis CI `.travis.yml` configuration that ensures `mdbook
-build` and `mdbook test` run successfully. The key to fast CI turnaround times
-is caching `mdbook` installs, so that you aren't compiling `mdbook` on every CI
-run.
-
-```yaml
-language: rust
-sudo: false
-
-cache:
-  - cargo
-
-rust:
-  - stable
-
-before_script:
-  - (test -x $HOME/.cargo/bin/cargo-install-update || cargo install cargo-update)
-  - (test -x $HOME/.cargo/bin/mdbook || cargo install --vers "^0.1" mdbook)
-  - cargo install-update -a
-
-script:
-  - cd path/to/mybook && mdbook build && mdbook test
-```
-
-## Deploying Your Book to GitHub Pages
-
-Following these instructions will result in your book being published to GitHub
-pages after a successful CI run on your repository's `master` branch.
-
-First, create a new GitHub "Personal Access Token" with the "public_repo" permissions (or "repo" for private repositories). Go to your repository's Travis CI settings page and add an environment variable named `GITHUB_TOKEN` that is marked secure and *not* shown in the logs.
-
-Then, append this snippet to your `.travis.yml` and update the path to the `book` directory:
-
-```yaml
-deploy:
-  provider: pages
-  skip-cleanup: true
-  github-token: $GITHUB_TOKEN
-  local-dir: path/to/mybook/book
-  keep-history: false
-  on:
-    branch: master

-# Preprocessors
-
-A *preprocessor* is simply a bit of code which gets run immediately after the
-book is loaded and before it gets rendered, allowing you to update and mutate
-the book. Possible use cases are:
-
-- Creating custom helpers like `\{{#include /path/to/file.md}}`
-- Updating links so `[some chapter](some_chapter.md)` is automatically changed
-  to `[some chapter](some_chapter.html)` for the HTML renderer
-- Substituting in latex-style expressions (`$$ \frac{1}{3} $$`) with their
-  mathjax equivalents
-
-
-## Implementing a Preprocessor
-
-A preprocessor is represented by the `Preprocessor` trait.
-
-```rust
-pub trait Preprocessor {
-    fn name(&self) -> &str;
-    fn run(&self, ctx: &PreprocessorContext, book: &mut Book) -> Result<()>;
-}
-```
-
-Where the `PreprocessorContext` is defined as
-
-```rust
-pub struct PreprocessorContext {
-    pub root: PathBuf,
-    pub config: Config,
-}
-```
-
-## A complete Example
-
-The magic happens within the `run(...)` method of the [`Preprocessor`][preprocessor-docs] trait implementation.
-
-As direct access to the chapters is not possible, you will probably end up iterating
-them using `for_each_mut(...)`:
-
-```rust
-book.for_each_mut(|item: &mut BookItem| {
-    if let BookItem::Chapter(ref mut chapter) = *item {
-      eprintln!("{}: processing chapter '{}'", self.name(), chapter.name);
-      res = Some(
-          match Deemphasize::remove_emphasis(&mut num_removed_items, chapter) {
-              Ok(md) => {
-                  chapter.content = md;
-                  Ok(())
-              }
-              Err(err) => Err(err),
-          },
-      );
-  }
-});
-```
-
-The `chapter.content` is just a markdown formatted string, and you will have to
-process it in some way. Even though it's entirely possible to implement some sort of
-manual find & replace operation, if that feels too unsafe you can use [`pulldown-cmark`][pc]
-to parse the string into events and work on them instead.
-
-Finally you can use [`pulldown-cmark-to-cmark`][pctc] to transform these events back to
-a string.
-
-The following code block shows how to remove all emphasis from markdown, and do so
-safely.
-
-```rust
-fn remove_emphasis(num_removed_items: &mut i32, chapter: &mut Chapter) -> Result<String> {
-    let mut buf = String::with_capacity(chapter.content.len());
-    let events = Parser::new(&chapter.content).filter(|e| {
-        let should_keep = match *e {
-            Event::Start(Tag::Emphasis)
-            | Event::Start(Tag::Strong)
-            | Event::End(Tag::Emphasis)
-            | Event::End(Tag::Strong) => false,
-            _ => true,
-        };
-        if !should_keep {
-            *num_removed_items += 1;
-        }
-        should_keep
-    });
-    cmark(events, &mut buf, None)
-        .map(|_| buf)
-        .map_err(|err| Error::from(format!("Markdown serialization failed: {}", err)))
-}
-```

-# Configuration
-
-You can configure the parameters for your book in the ***book.toml*** file.
-
-Here is an example of what a ***book.toml*** file might look like:
-
-```toml
-[book]
-title = "Example book"
-author = "John Doe"
-description = "The example book covers examples."
-
-[build]
-build-dir = "my-example-book"
-create-missing = false
-
-[output.html]
-additional-css = ["custom.css"]
-
-[output.html.search]
-limit-results = 15
-```
-
-## Supported configuration options
-
-It is important to note that **any** relative path specified in the in the configuration will
-always be taken relative from the root of the book where the configuration file is located.
-
-
-### General metadata
-
-This is general information about your book.
-
-- **title:** The title of the book
-- **authors:** The author(s) of the book
-- **description:** A description for the book, which is added as meta
-  information in the html `<head>` of each page
-- **src:** By default, the source directory is found in the directory named
-  `src` directly under the root folder. But this is configurable with the `src`
-  key in the configuration file.
-
-**book.toml**
-```toml
-[book]
-title = "Example book"
-authors = ["John Doe", "Jane Doe"]
-description = "The example book covers examples."
-src = "my-src"  # the source files will be found in `root/my-src` instead of `root/src`
-```
-
-### Build options
-
-This controls the build process of your book.
-
-- **build-dir:** The directory to put the rendered book in. By default this is
-  `book/` in the book's root directory.
-- **create-missing:** By default, any missing files specified in `SUMMARY.md`
-  will be created when the book is built (i.e. `create-missing = true`). If this
-  is `false` then the build process will instead exit with an error if any files
-  do not exist.
-- **preprocess:** Specify which preprocessors to be applied. Default is `["links", "index"]`. To disable default preprocessors, pass an empty array `[]` in.
-
-
-The following preprocessors are available and included by default:
-
-- `links`: Expand the `{{# playpen}}` and `{{# include}}` handlebars helpers in a chapter.
-- `index`: Convert all chapter files named `README.md` into `index.md`. That is to say, all `README.md` would be rendered to an index file `index.html` in the rendered book.
-
-
-**book.toml**
-```toml
-[build]
-build-dir = "build"
-create-missing = false
-preprocess = ["links", "index"]
-```
-
-### HTML renderer options
-The HTML renderer has a couple of options as well. All the options for the
-renderer need to be specified under the TOML table `[output.html]`.
-
-The following configuration options are available:
-
-- **theme:** mdBook comes with a default theme and all the resource files
-  needed for it. But if this option is set, mdBook will selectively overwrite
-  the theme files with the ones found in the specified folder.
-- **curly-quotes:** Convert straight quotes to curly quotes, except for
-  those that occur in code blocks and code spans. Defaults to `false`.
-- **google-analytics:** If you use Google Analytics, this option lets you
-  enable it by simply specifying your ID in the configuration file.
-- **additional-css:** If you need to slightly change the appearance of your
-  book without overwriting the whole style, you can specify a set of
-  stylesheets that will be loaded after the default ones where you can
-  surgically change the style.
-- **additional-js:** If you need to add some behaviour to your book without
-  removing the current behaviour, you can specify a set of JavaScript files
-  that will be loaded alongside the default one.
-- **no-section-label:** mdBook by defaults adds section label in table of
-  contents column. For example, "1.", "2.1". Set this option to true to
-  disable those labels. Defaults to `false`.
-- **playpen:** A subtable for configuring various playpen settings.
-- **search:** A subtable for configuring the in-browser search
-  functionality. mdBook must be compiled with the `search` feature enabled
-  (on by default).
-
-Available configuration options for the `[output.html.playpen]` table:
-
-- **editable:** Allow editing the source code. Defaults to `false`.
-- **copy-js:** Copy JavaScript files for the editor to the output directory.
-  Defaults to `true`.
-
-[Ace]: https://ace.c9.io/
-
-Available configuration options for the `[output.html.search]` table:
-
-- **enable:** Enables the search feature. Defaults to `true`.
-- **limit-results:** The maximum number of search results. Defaults to `30`.
-- **teaser-word-count:** The number of words used for a search result teaser. 
-  Defaults to `30`.
-- **use-boolean-and:** Define the logical link between multiple search words. 
-  If true, all search words must appear in each result. Defaults to `true`.
-- **boost-title:** Boost factor for the search result score if a search word
-  appears in the header. Defaults to `2`.
-- **boost-hierarchy:** Boost factor for the search result score if a search
-  word appears in the hierarchy. The hierarchy contains all titles of the
-  parent documents and all parent headings. Defaults to `1`.
-- **boost-paragraph:** Boost factor for the search result score if a search 
-  word appears in the text. Defaults to `1`.
-- **expand:** True if search should match longer results e.g. search `micro` 
-  should match `microwave`. Defaults to `true`.
-- **heading-split-level:** Search results will link to a section of the document
-  which contains the result. Documents are split into sections by headings
-  this level or less.
-  Defaults to `3`. (`### This is a level 3 heading`)
-- **copy-js:** Copy JavaScript files for the search implementation to the
-  output directory. Defaults to `true`.
-
-This shows all available options in the **book.toml**:
-```toml
-[book]
-title = "Example book"
-authors = ["John Doe", "Jane Doe"]
-description = "The example book covers examples."
-
-[build]
-build-dir = "book"
-create-missing = true
-preprocess = ["links", "index"]
-
-[output.html]
-theme = "my-theme"
-curly-quotes = true
-google-analytics = "123456"
-additional-css = ["custom.css", "custom2.css"]
-additional-js = ["custom.js"]
-
-[output.html.playpen]
-editor = "./path/to/editor"
-editable = false
-
-[output.html.search]
-enable = true
-searcher = "./path/to/searcher"
-limit-results = 30
-teaser-word-count = 30
-use-boolean-and = true
-boost-title = 2
-boost-hierarchy = 1
-boost-paragraph = 1
-expand = true
-heading-split-level = 3
-copy-js = true
-```
-
-
-## Environment Variables
-
-All configuration values can be overridden from the command line by setting the
-corresponding environment variable. Because many operating systems restrict
-environment variables to be alphanumeric characters or `_`, the configuration
-key needs to be formatted slightly differently to the normal `foo.bar.baz` form.
-
-Variables starting with `MDBOOK_` are used for configuration. The key is
-created by removing the `MDBOOK_` prefix and turning the resulting
-string into `kebab-case`. Double underscores (`__`) separate nested
-keys, while a single underscore (`_`) is replaced with a dash (`-`).
-
-For example:
-
-- `MDBOOK_foo` -> `foo`
-- `MDBOOK_FOO` -> `foo`
-- `MDBOOK_FOO__BAR` -> `foo.bar`
-- `MDBOOK_FOO_BAR` -> `foo-bar`
-- `MDBOOK_FOO_bar__baz` -> `foo-bar.baz`
-
-So by setting the `MDBOOK_BOOK__TITLE` environment variable you can
-override the book's title without needing to touch your `book.toml`.
-
-> **Note:** To facilitate setting more complex config items, the value
-> of an environment variable is first parsed as JSON, falling back to a
-> string if the parse fails.
->
-> This means, if you so desired, you could override all book metadata
-> when building the book with something like
->
-> ```text
-> $ export MDBOOK_BOOK="{'title': 'My Awesome Book', authors: ['Michael-F-Bryan']}"
-> $ mdbook build
-> ```
-
-The latter case may be useful in situations where `mdbook` is invoked
-from a script or CI, where it sometimes isn't possible to update the
-`book.toml` before building.

-
-mdBook has optional support for math equations through [MathJax](https://www.mathjax.org/).

-
-```toml
-[output.html]
-mathjax-support = true

-
->**Note:**
-The usual delimiters MathJax uses are not yet supported. You can't currently use `$$ ... $$` as delimiters and the `\[ ... \]` delimiters need an extra backslash to work. Hopefully this limitation will be lifted soon.
-
->**Note:**
-> When you use double backslashes in MathJax blocks (for example in commands such as `\begin{cases} \frac 1 2 \\ \frac 3 4 \end{cases}`) you need to add _two extra_ backslashes (e.g., `\begin{cases} \frac 1 2 \\\\ \frac 3 4 \end{cases}`).

-The path to the file has to be relative from the current source file.
-
-Usually, this command is used for including code snippets and examples. In this case, oftens one would include a specific part of the file e.g. which only contains the relevant lines for the example. We support four different modes of partial includes:
-
-```hbs

-\{{#include file.rs::10}}
-\{{#include file.rs:2:}}
-\{{#include file.rs:2:10}}

-With the following syntax, you can insert runnable Rust files into your book:
-
-```hbs

-The summary file is used by mdBook to know what chapters to include,
-in what order they should appear, what their hierarchy is and where the source files are.
-Without this file, there is no book.
-
-Even though `SUMMARY.md` is a markdown file, the formatting is very strict to
-allow for easy parsing. Let's see how you should format your `SUMMARY.md` file.
-
-#### Allowed elements
-
-1. ***Title*** It's common practice to begin with a title, generally
-   <code class="language-markdown"># Summary</code>.
-   But it is not mandatory, the parser just ignores it. So you can too
-   if you feel like it.
-
-2. ***Prefix Chapter*** Before the main numbered chapters you can add a couple of elements that will not be numbered. This is useful for
-   forewords, introductions, etc. There are however some constraints. You can not nest prefix chapters, they should all be on the root level. And you can not add prefix chapters once you have added numbered chapters.
-   ```markdown
-   [Title of prefix element](relative/path/to/markdown.md)
-   ```
-
-3. ***Numbered Chapter*** Numbered chapters are the main content of the book, they will be numbered and can be nested,
-   resulting in a nice hierarchy (chapters, sub-chapters, etc.)
-   ```markdown
-   - [Title of the Chapter](relative/path/to/markdown.md)
-   ```
-   You can either use `-` or `*` to indicate a numbered chapter.
-
-4. ***Suffix Chapter*** After the numbered chapters you can add a couple of non-numbered chapters. They are the same as prefix chapters but come after the numbered chapters instead of before.
-
-All other elements are unsupported and will be ignored at best or result in an error.

-# Theme
-
-The default renderer uses a [handlebars](http://handlebarsjs.com/) template to render your markdown files and comes with a default theme
-included in the mdBook binary.
-
-The theme is totally customizable, you can selectively replace every file from the theme by your own by adding a
-`theme` directory next to `src` folder in your project root. Create a new file with the name of the file you want to override
-and now that file will be used instead of the default file.
-
-Here are the files you can override:
-
-- ***index.hbs*** is the handlebars template.
-- ***book.css*** is the style used in the output. If you want to change the design of your book, this is probably the file you want to modify. Sometimes in conjunction with `index.hbs` when you want to radically change the layout.
-- ***book.js*** is mostly used to add client side functionality, like hiding / un-hiding the sidebar, changing the theme, ...
-- ***highlight.js*** is the JavaScript that is used to highlight code snippets, you should not need to modify this.  
-- ***highlight.css*** is the theme used for the code highlighting
-- ***favicon.png*** the favicon that will be used
-
-Generally, when you want to tweak the theme, you don't need to override all the files. If you only need changes in the stylesheet,
-there is no point in overriding all the other files. Because custom files take precedence over built-in ones, they will not get updated with new fixes / features.
-
-**Note:** When you override a file, it is possible that you break some functionality. Therefore I recommend to use the file from the default theme as template and only add / modify what you need. You can copy the default theme into your source directory automatically by using `mdbook init --theme` just remove the files you don't want to override.

-- ***content*** This is the rendered markdown.
-- ***path_to_root*** This is a path containing exclusively `../`'s that points to the root of the book from the current file.
-Since the original directory structure is maintained, it is useful to prepend relative links with this `path_to_root`.
-
-- ***chapters*** Is an array of dictionaries of the form
-  ```json
-  {"section": "1.2.1", "name": "name of this chapter", "path": "dir/markdown.md"}
-  ```
-  containing all the chapters of the book. It is used for example to construct the table of contents (sidebar).
-
-## Handlebars Helpers
-
-In addition to the properties you can access, there are some handlebars helpers at your disposal.
-
-### 1. toc
-
-    The toc helper is used like this
-
-    ```handlebars
-    {{#toc}}{{/toc}}
-    ```
-
-    and outputs something that looks like this, depending on the structure of your book
-
-    ```html
-    <ul class="chapter">
-        <li><a href="link/to/file.html">Some chapter</a></li>
-        <li>
-            <ul class="section">
-                <li><a href="link/to/other_file.html">Some other Chapter</a></li>
-            </ul>
-        </li>
-    </ul>
-    ```
-
-    If you would like to make a toc with another structure, you have access to the chapters property containing all the data.
-    The only limitation at the moment is that you would have to do it with JavaScript instead of with a handlebars helper.
-
-    ```html
-    <script>
-    var chapters = {{chapters}};
-    // Processing here
-    </script>
-    ```
-
-### 2. previous / next
-
-    The previous and next helpers expose a `link` and `name` property to the previous and next chapters.
-
-    They are used like this
-
-    ```handlebars
-    {{#previous}}
-        <a href="{{link}}" class="nav-chapters previous">
-            <i class="fa fa-angle-left"></i>
-        </a>
-    {{/previous}}
-    ```
-
-    The inner html will only be rendered if the previous / next chapter exists.
-    Of course the inner html can be changed to your liking.
-

-# Syntax Highlighting
-
-For syntax highlighting I use [Highlight.js](https://highlightjs.org) with a custom theme.
-
-Automatic language detection has been turned off, so you will probably want to
-specify the programming language you use like this
-
-<pre><code class="language-markdown">```rust
-fn main() {
-    // Some code
-}
-```</code></pre>
-
-## Custom theme
-Like the rest of the theme, the files used for syntax highlighting can be overridden with your own.
-
-- ***highlight.js*** normally you shouldn't have to overwrite this file, unless you want to use a more recent version.
-- ***highlight.css*** theme used by highlight.js for syntax highlighting.
-
-If you want to use another theme for `highlight.js` download it from their website, or make it yourself,
-rename it to `highlight.css` and put it in `src/theme` (or the equivalent if you changed your source folder)
-
-Now your theme will be used instead of the default theme.
-
-## Hiding code lines
-
-There is a feature in mdBook that let's you hide code lines by prepending them with a `#`.
-
-
-```bash
-# fn main() {
-    let x = 5;
-    let y = 6;
-
-    println!("{}", x + y);
-# }
-```
-
-Will render as
-
-```rust
-# fn main() {
-    let x = 5;
-    let y = 7;
-
-    println!("{}", x + y);
-# }
-```
-
-**At the moment, this only works for code examples that are annotated with `rust`. Because it would collide with semantics of some programming languages. In the future, we want to make this configurable through the `book.toml` so that everyone can benefit from it.**
-
-
-## Improve default theme
-
-If you think the default theme doesn't look quite right for a specific language, or could be improved.
-Feel free to [submit a new issue](https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/mdBook/issues) explaining what you have in mind and I will take a look at it.
-
-You could also create a pull-request with the proposed improvements.
-
-Overall the theme should be light and sober, without to many flashy colors.

+# Introduction
+
+**mdBook** is a command line tool to create books with Markdown.
+It is ideal for creating product or API documentation, tutorials, course materials or anything that requires a clean,
+easily navigable and customizable presentation.
+
+* Lightweight [Markdown] syntax helps you focus more on your content
+* Integrated [search] support
+* Color [syntax highlighting] for code blocks for many different languages
+* [Theme] files allow customizing the formatting of the output
+* [Preprocessors] can provide extensions for custom syntax and modifying content
+* [Backends] can render the output to multiple formats
+* Written in [Rust] for speed, safety, and simplicity
+* Automated testing of [Rust code samples]
+
+This guide is an example of what mdBook produces.
+mdBook is used by the Rust programming language project, and [The Rust Programming Language][trpl] book is another fine example of mdBook in action.

+# Running `mdbook` in Continuous Integration
+
+There are a variety of services such as [GitHub Actions] or [GitLab CI/CD] which can be used to test and deploy your book automatically.
+
+The following provides some general guidelines on how to configure your service to run mdBook.
+Specific recipes can be found at the [Automated Deployment] wiki page.
+
+[GitHub Actions]: https://docs.github.com/en/actions
+[GitLab CI/CD]: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/
+[Automated Deployment]: https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/wiki/Automated-Deployment
+
+## Installing mdBook
+
+There are several different strategies for installing mdBook.
+The particular method depends on your needs and preferences.
+
+### Pre-compiled binaries
+
+Perhaps the easiest method is to use the pre-compiled binaries found on the [GitHub Releases page][releases].
+A simple approach would be to use the popular `curl` CLI tool to download the executable:
+
+```sh
+mkdir bin
+curl -sSL https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/releases/download/v0.4.16/mdbook-v0.4.16-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz | tar -xz --directory=bin
+bin/mdbook build
+```
+
+Some considerations for this approach:
+
+* This is relatively fast, and does not necessarily require dealing with caching.
+* This does not require installing Rust.
+* Specifying a specific URL means you have to manually update your script to get a new version.
+  This may be a benefit if you want to lock to a specific version.
+  However, some users prefer to automatically get a newer version when they are published.
+* You are reliant on the GitHub CDN being available.
+
+[releases]: https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/releases
+
+### Building from source
+
+Building from source will require having Rust installed.
+Some services have Rust pre-installed, but if your service does not, you will need to add a step to install it.
+
+After Rust is installed, `cargo install` can be used to build and install mdBook.
+We recommend using a SemVer version specifier so that you get the latest **non-breaking** version of mdBook.
+For example:
+
+```sh
+cargo install mdbook --no-default-features --features search --vers "^0.4" --locked
+```
+
+This includes several recommended options:
+
+* `--no-default-features` — Disables features like the HTTP server used by `mdbook serve` that is likely not needed on CI.
+  This will speed up the build time significantly.
+* `--features search` — Disabling default features means you should then manually enable features that you want, such as the built-in [search] capability.
+* `--vers "^0.4"` — This will install the most recent version of the `0.4` series.
+  However, versions after like `0.5.0` won't be installed, as they may break your build.
+  Cargo will automatically upgrade mdBook if you have an older version already installed.
+* `--locked` — This will use the dependencies that were used when mdBook was released.
+  Without `--locked`, it will use the latest version of all dependencies, which may include some fixes since the last release, but may also (rarely) cause build problems.
+
+You will likely want to investigate caching options, as building mdBook can be somewhat slow.
+
+[search]: guide/reading.md#search
+
+## Running tests
+
+You may want to run tests using [`mdbook test`] every time you push a change or create a pull request.
+This can be used to validate Rust code examples in the book.
+
+This will require having Rust installed.
+Some services have Rust pre-installed, but if your service does not, you will need to add a step to install it.
+
+Other than making sure the appropriate version of Rust is installed, there's not much more than just running `mdbook test` from the book directory.
+
+You may also want to consider running other kinds of tests, like [mdbook-linkcheck] which will check for broken links.
+Or if you have your own style checks, spell checker, or any other tests it might be good to run them in CI.
+
+[`mdbook test`]: cli/test.md
+[mdbook-linkcheck]: https://github.com/Michael-F-Bryan/mdbook-linkcheck#continuous-integration
+
+## Deploying
+
+You may want to automatically deploy your book.
+Some may want to do this with every time a change is pushed, and others may want to only deploy when a specific release is tagged.
+
+You'll also need to understand the specifics on how to push a change to your web service.
+For example, [GitHub Pages] just requires committing the output onto a specific git branch.
+Other services may require using something like SSH to connect to a remote server.
+
+The basic outline is that you need to run `mdbook build` to generate the output, and then transfer the files (which are in the `book` directory) to the correct location.
+
+You may then want to consider if you need to invalidate any caches on your web service.
+
+See the [Automated Deployment] wiki page for examples of various different services.
+
+[GitHub Pages]: https://docs.github.com/en/pages
+
+### 404 handling
+
+mdBook automatically generates a 404 page to be used for broken links.
+The default output is a file named `404.html` at the root of the book.
+Some services like [GitHub Pages] will automatically use this page for broken links.
+For other services, you may want to consider configuring the web server to use this page as it will provide the reader navigation to get back to the book.
+
+If your book is not deployed at the root of the domain, then you should set the [`output.html.site-url`] setting so that the 404 page works correctly.
+It needs to know where the book is deployed in order to load the static files (like CSS) correctly.
+For example, this guide is deployed at <https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/>, and the `site-url` setting is configured like this:
+
+```toml
+# book.toml
+[output.html]
+site-url = "/mdBook/"
+```
+
+You can customize the look of the 404 page by creating a file named `src/404.md` in your book.
+If you want to use a different filename, you can set [`output.html.input-404`] to a different filename.

+# Preprocessors
+
+A *preprocessor* is simply a bit of code which gets run immediately after the
+book is loaded and before it gets rendered, allowing you to update and mutate
+the book. Possible use cases are:
+
+- Creating custom helpers like `\{{#include /path/to/file.md}}`
+- Substituting in latex-style expressions (`$$ \frac{1}{3} $$`) with their
+  mathjax equivalents
+
+See [Configuring Preprocessors](../format/configuration/preprocessors.md) for more information about using preprocessors.
+
+## Hooking Into MDBook
+
+MDBook uses a fairly simple mechanism for discovering third party plugins.
+A new table is added to `book.toml` (e.g. `[preprocessor.foo]` for the `foo`
+preprocessor) and then `mdbook` will try to invoke the `mdbook-foo` program as
+part of the build process.
+
+Once the preprocessor has been defined and the build process starts, mdBook executes the command defined in the `preprocessor.foo.command` key twice.
+The first time it runs the preprocessor to determine if it supports the given renderer.
+mdBook passes two arguments to the process: the first argument is the string `supports` and the second argument is the renderer name.
+The preprocessor should exit with a status code 0 if it supports the given renderer, or return a non-zero exit code if it does not.
+
+If the preprocessor supports the renderer, then mdbook runs it a second time, passing JSON data into stdin.
+The JSON consists of an array of `[context, book]` where `context` is the serialized object [`PreprocessorContext`] and `book` is a [`Book`] object containing the content of the book.
+
+The preprocessor should return the JSON format of the [`Book`] object to stdout, with any modifications it wishes to perform.
+
+The easiest way to get started is by creating your own implementation of the
+`Preprocessor` trait (e.g. in `lib.rs`) and then creating a shell binary which
+translates inputs to the correct `Preprocessor` method. For convenience, there
+is [an example no-op preprocessor] in the `examples/` directory which can easily
+be adapted for other preprocessors.
+
+<details>
+<summary>Example no-op preprocessor</summary>
+
+```rust
+// nop-preprocessors.rs
+
+{{#include ../../../examples/nop-preprocessor.rs}}
+```
+</details>
+
+## Hints For Implementing A Preprocessor
+
+By pulling in `mdbook` as a library, preprocessors can have access to the
+existing infrastructure for dealing with books.
+
+For example, a custom preprocessor could use the
+[`CmdPreprocessor::parse_input()`] function to deserialize the JSON written to
+`stdin`. Then each chapter of the `Book` can be mutated in-place via
+[`Book::for_each_mut()`], and then written to `stdout` with the `serde_json`
+crate.
+
+Chapters can be accessed either directly (by recursively iterating over
+chapters) or via the `Book::for_each_mut()` convenience method.
+
+The `chapter.content` is just a string which happens to be markdown. While it's
+entirely possible to use regular expressions or do a manual find & replace,
+you'll probably want to process the input into something more computer-friendly.
+The [`pulldown-cmark`][pc] crate implements a production-quality event-based
+Markdown parser, with the [`pulldown-cmark-to-cmark`][pctc] crate allowing you to
+translate events back into markdown text.
+
+The following code block shows how to remove all emphasis from markdown,
+without accidentally breaking the document.
+
+```rust
+fn remove_emphasis(
+    num_removed_items: &mut usize,
+    chapter: &mut Chapter,
+) -> Result<String> {
+    let mut buf = String::with_capacity(chapter.content.len());
+
+    let events = Parser::new(&chapter.content).filter(|e| {
+        let should_keep = match *e {
+            Event::Start(Tag::Emphasis)
+            | Event::Start(Tag::Strong)
+            | Event::End(Tag::Emphasis)
+            | Event::End(Tag::Strong) => false,
+            _ => true,
+        };
+        if !should_keep {
+            *num_removed_items += 1;
+        }
+        should_keep
+    });
+
+    cmark(events, &mut buf, None).map(|_| buf).map_err(|err| {
+        Error::from(format!("Markdown serialization failed: {}", err))
+    })
+}
+```
+
+For everything else, have a look [at the complete example][example].
+
+## Implementing a preprocessor with a different language
+
+The fact that mdBook utilizes stdin and stdout to communicate with the preprocessors makes it easy to implement them in a language other than Rust.
+The following code shows how to implement a simple preprocessor in Python, which will modify the content of the first chapter.
+The example below follows the configuration shown above with `preprocessor.foo.command` actually pointing to a Python script.
+
+```python
+import json
+import sys
+
+
+if __name__ == '__main__':
+    if len(sys.argv) > 1: # we check if we received any argument
+        if sys.argv[1] == "supports": 
+            # then we are good to return an exit status code of 0, since the other argument will just be the renderer's name
+            sys.exit(0)
+
+    # load both the context and the book representations from stdin
+    context, book = json.load(sys.stdin)
+    # and now, we can just modify the content of the first chapter
+    book['sections'][0]['Chapter']['content'] = '# Hello'
+    # we are done with the book's modification, we can just print it to stdout, 
+    print(json.dumps(book))
+```

+# Environment Variables
+
+All configuration values can be overridden from the command line by setting the
+corresponding environment variable. Because many operating systems restrict
+environment variables to be alphanumeric characters or `_`, the configuration
+key needs to be formatted slightly differently to the normal `foo.bar.baz` form.
+
+Variables starting with `MDBOOK_` are used for configuration. The key is created
+by removing the `MDBOOK_` prefix and turning the resulting string into
+`kebab-case`. Double underscores (`__`) separate nested keys, while a single
+underscore (`_`) is replaced with a dash (`-`).
+
+For example:
+
+- `MDBOOK_foo` -> `foo`
+- `MDBOOK_FOO` -> `foo`
+- `MDBOOK_FOO__BAR` -> `foo.bar`
+- `MDBOOK_FOO_BAR` -> `foo-bar`
+- `MDBOOK_FOO_bar__baz` -> `foo-bar.baz`
+
+So by setting the `MDBOOK_BOOK__TITLE` environment variable you can override the
+book's title without needing to touch your `book.toml`.
+
+> **Note:** To facilitate setting more complex config items, the value of an
+> environment variable is first parsed as JSON, falling back to a string if the
+> parse fails.
+>
+> This means, if you so desired, you could override all book metadata when
+> building the book with something like
+>
+> ```shell
+> $ export MDBOOK_BOOK="{'title': 'My Awesome Book', authors: ['Michael-F-Bryan']}"
+> $ mdbook build
+> ```
+
+The latter case may be useful in situations where `mdbook` is invoked from a
+script or CI, where it sometimes isn't possible to update the `book.toml` before
+building.

+  `edition2018` or `edition2021` annotations, such as:

+
+- **build-dir:** The directory to put the rendered book in. By default this is
+  `book/` in the book's root directory.
+  This can overridden with the `--dest-dir` CLI option.
+- **create-missing:** By default, any missing files specified in `SUMMARY.md`
+  will be created when the book is built (i.e. `create-missing = true`). If this
+  is `false` then the build process will instead exit with an error if any files

+
+  - For clarity, with no preprocessor configuration, the default `links` and

+  - Setting `use-default-preprocessors = false` will disable these

+# Configuring Preprocessors
+
+Preprocessors are extensions that can modify the raw Markdown source before it gets sent to the renderer.
+
+The following preprocessors are built-in and included by default:
+
+- `links`: Expands the `{{ #playground }}`, `{{ #include }}`, and `{{ #rustdoc_include }}` handlebars
+  helpers in a chapter to include the contents of a file.
+  See [Including files] for more.
+- `index`: Convert all chapter files named `README.md` into `index.md`. That is
+  to say, all `README.md` would be rendered to an index file `index.html` in the
+  rendered book.
+
+The built-in preprocessors can be disabled with the [`build.use-default-preprocessors`] config option.
+
+The community has developed several preprocessors.
+See the [Third Party Plugins] wiki page for a list of available preprocessors.
+
+For information on how to create a new preprocessor, see the [Preprocessors for Developers] chapter.
+
+[Including files]: ../mdbook.md#including-files
+[`build.use-default-preprocessors`]: general.md#build-options
+[Third Party Plugins]: https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/wiki/Third-party-plugins
+[Preprocessors for Developers]: ../../for_developers/preprocessors.md
+
+## Custom Preprocessor Configuration
+
+Preprocessors can be added by including a `preprocessor` table in `book.toml` with the name of the preprocessor.
+For example, if you have a preprocessor called `mdbook-example`, then you can include it with:
+
+```toml
+[preprocessor.example]
+```
+
+With this table, mdBook will execute the `mdbook-example` preprocessor.
+
+This table can include additional key-value pairs that are specific to the preprocessor.
+For example, if our example prepocessor needed some extra configuration options:
+
+```toml
+[preprocessor.example]
+some-extra-feature = true
+```
+
+## Locking a Preprocessor dependency to a renderer
+
+You can explicitly specify that a preprocessor should run for a renderer by
+binding the two together.
+
+```toml
+[preprocessor.example]
+renderers = ["html"]  # example preprocessor only runs with the HTML renderer
+```
+
+## Provide Your Own Command
+
+By default when you add a `[preprocessor.foo]` table to your `book.toml` file,
+`mdbook` will try to invoke the `mdbook-foo` executable. If you want to use a
+different program name or pass in command-line arguments, this behaviour can
+be overridden by adding a `command` field.
+
+```toml
+[preprocessor.random]
+command = "python random.py"
+```
+
+## Require A Certain Order
+
+The order in which preprocessors are run can be controlled with the `before` and `after` fields.
+For example, suppose you want your `linenos` preprocessor to process lines that may have been `{{#include}}`d; then you want it to run after the built-in `links` preprocessor, which you can require using either the `before` or `after` field:
+
+```toml
+[preprocessor.linenos]
+after = [ "links" ]
+```
+
+or
+
+```toml
+[preprocessor.links]
+before = [ "linenos" ]

+# Configuring Renderers
+
+Renderers (also called "backends") are responsible for creating the output of the book.
+
+The following backends are built-in:
+
+* [`html`](#html-renderer-options) — This renders the book to HTML.
+  This is enabled by default if no other `[output]` tables are defined in `book.toml`.
+* [`markdown`](#markdown-renderer) — This outputs the book as markdown after running the preprocessors.
+  This is useful for debugging preprocessors.
+
+The community has developed several backends.
+See the [Third Party Plugins] wiki page for a list of available backends.
+
+For information on how to create a new backend, see the [Backends for Developers] chapter.
+
+[Third Party Plugins]: https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/wiki/Third-party-plugins
+[Backends for Developers]: ../../for_developers/backends.md
+
+## Output tables
+
+Backends can be added by including a `output` table in `book.toml` with the name of the backend.
+For example, if you have a backend called `mdbook-wordcount`, then you can include it with:
+
+```toml
+[output.wordcount]
+```
+
+With this table, mdBook will execute the `mdbook-wordcount` backend.
+
+This table can include additional key-value pairs that are specific to the backend.
+For example, if our example backend needed some extra configuration options:
+
+```toml
+[output.wordcount]
+ignores = ["Example Chapter"]
+```
+
+If you define any `[output]` tables, then the `html` backend is not enabled by default.
+If you want to keep the `html` backend running, then just include it in the `book.toml` file.
+For example:
+
+```toml
+[book]
+title = "My Awesome Book"
+
+[output.wordcount]
+
+[output.html]
+```
+
+If more than one `output` table is included, this changes the behavior for the layout of the output directory.
+If there is only one backend, then it places its output directly in the `book` directory (see [`build.build-dir`] to override this location).
+If there is more than one backend, then each backend is placed in a separate directory underneath `book`.
+For example, the above would have directories `book/html` and `book/wordcount`.
+
+[`build.build-dir`]: general.md#build-options
+
+### Custom backend commands
+
+By default when you add an `[output.foo]` table to your `book.toml` file,
+`mdbook` will try to invoke the `mdbook-foo` executable.
+If you want to use a different program name or pass in command-line arguments,
+this behaviour can be overridden by adding a `command` field.
+
+```toml
+[output.random]
+command = "python random.py"
+```
+
+### Optional backends
+
+If you enable a backend that isn't installed, the default behavior is to throw an error.
+This behavior can be changed by marking the backend as optional:
+
+```toml
+[output.wordcount]
+optional = true
+```
+
+This demotes the error to a warning.
+
+
+## HTML renderer options
+
+The HTML renderer has a variety of options detailed below.
+They should be specified in the `[output.html]` table of the `book.toml` file.
+
+```toml
+# Example book.toml file with all output options.
+[book]
+title = "Example book"
+authors = ["John Doe", "Jane Doe"]
+description = "The example book covers examples."
+
+[output.html]
+theme = "my-theme"
+default-theme = "light"
+preferred-dark-theme = "navy"
+curly-quotes = true
+mathjax-support = false
+copy-fonts = true
+additional-css = ["custom.css", "custom2.css"]
+additional-js = ["custom.js"]
+no-section-label = false
+git-repository-url = "https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook"
+git-repository-icon = "fa-github"
+edit-url-template = "https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/edit/master/guide/{path}"
+site-url = "/example-book/"
+cname = "myproject.rs"
+input-404 = "not-found.md"
+```
+
+The following configuration options are available:
+
+- **theme:** mdBook comes with a default theme and all the resource files needed
+  for it. But if this option is set, mdBook will selectively overwrite the theme
+  files with the ones found in the specified folder.
+- **default-theme:** The theme color scheme to select by default in the
+  'Change Theme' dropdown. Defaults to `light`.
+- **preferred-dark-theme:** The default dark theme. This theme will be used if
+  the browser requests the dark version of the site via the
+  ['prefers-color-scheme'](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@media/prefers-color-scheme)
+  CSS media query. Defaults to `navy`.
+- **curly-quotes:** Convert straight quotes to curly quotes, except for those
+  that occur in code blocks and code spans. Defaults to `false`.
+- **mathjax-support:** Adds support for [MathJax](../mathjax.md). Defaults to
+  `false`.
+- **copy-fonts:** Copies fonts.css and respective font files to the output directory and use them in the default theme. Defaults to `true`.
+- **google-analytics:** This field has been deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
+  Use the `theme/head.hbs` file to add the appropriate Google Analytics code instead.
+- **additional-css:** If you need to slightly change the appearance of your book
+  without overwriting the whole style, you can specify a set of stylesheets that
+  will be loaded after the default ones where you can surgically change the
+  style.
+- **additional-js:** If you need to add some behaviour to your book without
+  removing the current behaviour, you can specify a set of JavaScript files that
+  will be loaded alongside the default one.
+- **no-section-label:** mdBook by defaults adds numeric section labels in the table of
+  contents column. For example, "1.", "2.1". Set this option to true to disable
+  those labels. Defaults to `false`.
+- **git-repository-url:**  A url to the git repository for the book. If provided
+  an icon link will be output in the menu bar of the book.
+- **git-repository-icon:** The FontAwesome icon class to use for the git
+  repository link. Defaults to `fa-github` which looks like <i class="fa fa-github"></i>.
+  If you are not using GitHub, another option to consider is `fa-code-fork` which looks like <i class="fa fa-code-fork"></i>.
+- **edit-url-template:** Edit url template, when provided shows a
+  "Suggest an edit" button (which looks like <i class="fa fa-edit"></i>) for directly jumping to editing the currently
+  viewed page. For e.g. GitHub projects set this to
+  `https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>/edit/master/{path}` or for
+  Bitbucket projects set it to
+  `https://bitbucket.org/<owner>/<repo>/src/master/{path}?mode=edit`
+  where {path} will be replaced with the full path of the file in the
+  repository.
+- **input-404:** The name of the markdown file used for missing files.
+  The corresponding output file will be the same, with the extension replaced with `html`.
+  Defaults to `404.md`.
+- **site-url:** The url where the book will be hosted. This is required to ensure
+  navigation links and script/css imports in the 404 file work correctly, even when accessing
+  urls in subdirectories. Defaults to `/`.
+- **cname:** The DNS subdomain or apex domain at which your book will be hosted.
+  This string will be written to a file named CNAME in the root of your site, as
+  required by GitHub Pages (see [*Managing a custom domain for your GitHub Pages
+  site*][custom domain]).
+
+[custom domain]: https://docs.github.com/en/github/working-with-github-pages/managing-a-custom-domain-for-your-github-pages-site
+
+### `[output.html.print]`
+
+The `[output.html.print]` table provides options for controlling the printable output.
+By default, mdBook will include an icon on the top right of the book (which looks like <i class="fa fa-print"></i>) that will print the book as a single page.
+
+```toml
+[output.html.print]
+enable = true    # include support for printable output
+page-break = true # insert page-break after each chapter
+```
+
+- **enable:** Enable print support. When `false`, all print support will not be
+  rendered. Defaults to `true`.
+- **page-break** Insert page breaks between chapters. Defaults to `true`.
+
+### `[output.html.fold]`
+
+The `[output.html.fold]` table provides options for controlling folding of the chapter listing in the navigation sidebar.
+
+```toml
+[output.html.fold]
+enable = false    # whether or not to enable section folding
+level = 0         # the depth to start folding
+```
+
+- **enable:** Enable section-folding. When off, all folds are open.
+  Defaults to `false`.
+- **level:** The higher the more folded regions are open. When level is 0, all
+  folds are closed. Defaults to `0`.
+
+### `[output.html.playground]`
+
+The `[output.html.playground]` table provides options for controlling Rust sample code blocks, and their integration with the [Rust Playground].
+
+[Rust Playground]: https://play.rust-lang.org/
+
+```toml
+[output.html.playground]
+editable = false         # allows editing the source code
+copyable = true          # include the copy button for copying code snippets
+copy-js = true           # includes the JavaScript for the code editor
+line-numbers = false     # displays line numbers for editable code
+runnable = true          # displays a run button for rust code
+```
+
+- **editable:** Allow editing the source code. Defaults to `false`.
+- **copyable:** Display the copy button on code snippets. Defaults to `true`.
+- **copy-js:** Copy JavaScript files for the editor to the output directory.
+  Defaults to `true`.
+- **line-numbers** Display line numbers on editable sections of code. Requires both `editable` and `copy-js` to be `true`. Defaults to `false`.
+- **runnable** Displays a run button for rust code snippets. Changing this to `false` will disable the run in playground feature globally. Defaults to `true`.
+
+[Ace]: https://ace.c9.io/
+
+### `[output.html.search]`
+
+The `[output.html.search]` table provides options for controlling the built-in text [search].
+mdBook must be compiled with the `search` feature enabled (on by default).
+
+[search]: ../../guide/reading.md#search
+
+```toml
+[output.html.search]
+enable = true            # enables the search feature
+limit-results = 30       # maximum number of search results
+teaser-word-count = 30   # number of words used for a search result teaser
+use-boolean-and = true   # multiple search terms must all match
+boost-title = 2          # ranking boost factor for matches in headers
+boost-hierarchy = 1      # ranking boost factor for matches in page names
+boost-paragraph = 1      # ranking boost factor for matches in text
+expand = true            # partial words will match longer terms
+heading-split-level = 3  # link results to heading levels
+copy-js = true           # include Javascript code for search
+```
+
+- **enable:** Enables the search feature. Defaults to `true`.
+- **limit-results:** The maximum number of search results. Defaults to `30`.
+- **teaser-word-count:** The number of words used for a search result teaser.
+  Defaults to `30`.
+- **use-boolean-and:** Define the logical link between multiple search words. If
+  true, all search words must appear in each result. Defaults to `false`.
+- **boost-title:** Boost factor for the search result score if a search word
+  appears in the header. Defaults to `2`.
+- **boost-hierarchy:** Boost factor for the search result score if a search word
+  appears in the hierarchy. The hierarchy contains all titles of the parent
+  documents and all parent headings. Defaults to `1`.
+- **boost-paragraph:** Boost factor for the search result score if a search word
+  appears in the text. Defaults to `1`.
+- **expand:** True if search should match longer results e.g. search `micro`
+  should match `microwave`. Defaults to `true`.
+- **heading-split-level:** Search results will link to a section of the document
+  which contains the result. Documents are split into sections by headings this
+  level or less. Defaults to `3`. (`### This is a level 3 heading`)
+- **copy-js:** Copy JavaScript files for the search implementation to the output
+  directory. Defaults to `true`.
+
+### `[output.html.redirect]`
+
+The `[output.html.redirect]` table provides a way to add redirects.
+This is useful when you move, rename, or remove a page to ensure that links to the old URL will go to the new location.
+
+```toml
+[output.html.redirect]
+"/appendices/bibliography.html" = "https://rustc-dev-guide.rust-lang.org/appendix/bibliography.html"
+"/other-installation-methods.html" = "../infra/other-installation-methods.html"
+```
+
+The table contains key-value pairs where the key is where the redirect file needs to be created, as an absolute path from the build directory, (e.g. `/appendices/bibliography.html`).
+The value can be any valid URI the browser should navigate to (e.g. `https://rust-lang.org/`, `/overview.html`, or `../bibliography.html`).
+
+This will generate an HTML page which will automatically redirect to the given location.
+Note that the source location does not support `#` anchor redirects.
+
+## Markdown Renderer
+
+The Markdown renderer will run preprocessors and then output the resulting
+Markdown. This is mostly useful for debugging preprocessors, especially in
+conjunction with `mdbook test` to see the Markdown that `mdbook` is passing
+to `rustdoc`.
+
+The Markdown renderer is included with `mdbook` but disabled by default.
+Enable it by adding an empty table to your `book.toml` as follows:
+
+```toml
+[output.markdown]
+```
+
+There are no configuration options for the Markdown renderer at this time;
+only whether it is enabled or disabled.
+
+See [the preprocessors documentation](preprocessors.md) for how to
+specify which preprocessors should run before the Markdown renderer.

+# Markdown
+
+mdBook's [parser](https://github.com/raphlinus/pulldown-cmark) adheres to the [CommonMark](https://commonmark.org/) specification with some extensions described below.
+You can take a quick [tutorial](https://commonmark.org/help/tutorial/),
+or [try out](https://spec.commonmark.org/dingus/) CommonMark in real time. A complete Markdown overview is out of scope for 
+this documentation, but below is a high level overview of some of the basics. For a more in-depth experience, check out the
+[Markdown Guide](https://www.markdownguide.org).
+
+## Text and Paragraphs
+
+Text is rendered relatively predictably: 
+
+```markdown
+Here is a line of text.
+
+This is a new line.
+```
+
+Will look like you might expect:
+
+Here is a line of text.
+
+This is a new line.
+
+## Headings
+
+Headings use the `#` marker and should be on a line by themselves. More `#` mean smaller headings:
+
+```markdown
+### A heading 
+
+Some text.
+
+#### A smaller heading 
+
+More text.
+```
+
+### A heading 
+
+Some text.
+
+#### A smaller heading 
+
+More text.
+
+## Lists
+
+Lists can be unordered or ordered. Ordered lists will order automatically:
+
+```markdown
+* milk
+* eggs
+* butter
+
+1. carrots
+1. celery
+1. radishes
+```
+
+* milk
+* eggs
+* butter
+
+1. carrots
+1. celery
+1. radishes
+
+## Links
+
+Linking to a URL or local file is easy:
+
+```markdown
+Use [mdBook](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook). 
+
+Read about [mdBook](mdBook.md).
+
+A bare url: <https://www.rust-lang.org>.
+```
+
+Use [mdBook](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook). 
+
+Read about [mdBook](mdBook.md).
+
+A bare url: <https://www.rust-lang.org>.
+
+----
+
+Relative links that end with `.md` will be converted to the `.html` extension.
+It is recommended to use `.md` links when possible.
+This is useful when viewing the Markdown file outside of mdBook, for example on GitHub or GitLab which render Markdown automatically.
+
+Links to `README.md` will be converted to `index.html`.
+This is done since some services like GitHub render README files automatically, but web servers typically expect the root file to be called `index.html`.
+
+You can link to individual headings with `#` fragments.
+For example, `mdbook.md#text-and-paragraphs` would link to the [Text and Paragraphs](#text-and-paragraphs) section above.
+The ID is created by transforming the heading such as converting to lowercase and replacing spaces with dashes.
+You can click on any heading and look at the URL in your browser to see what the fragment looks like.
+
+## Images
+
+Including images is simply a matter of including a link to them, much like in the _Links_ section above. The following markdown
+includes the Rust logo SVG image found in the `images` directory at the same level as this file:
+
+```markdown
+![The Rust Logo](images/rust-logo-blk.svg)
+```
+
+Produces the following HTML when built with mdBook:
+
+```html
+<p><img src="images/rust-logo-blk.svg" alt="The Rust Logo" /></p>
+```
+
+Which, of course displays the image like so:
+
+![The Rust Logo](images/rust-logo-blk.svg)
+
+## Extensions
+
+mdBook has several extensions beyond the standard CommonMark specification.
+
+### Strikethrough
+
+Text may be rendered with a horizontal line through the center by wrapping the
+text with two tilde characters on each side:
+
+```text
+An example of ~~strikethrough text~~.
+```
+
+This example will render as:
+
+> An example of ~~strikethrough text~~.
+
+This follows the [GitHub Strikethrough extension][strikethrough].
+
+### Footnotes
+
+A footnote generates a small numbered link in the text which when clicked
+takes the reader to the footnote text at the bottom of the item. The footnote
+label is written similarly to a link reference with a caret at the front. The
+footnote text is written like a link reference definition, with the text
+following the label. Example:
+
+```text
+This is an example of a footnote[^note].
+
+[^note]: This text is the contents of the footnote, which will be rendered
+    towards the bottom.
+```
+
+This example will render as:
+
+> This is an example of a footnote[^note].
+>
+> [^note]: This text is the contents of the footnote, which will be rendered
+>     towards the bottom.
+
+The footnotes are automatically numbered based on the order the footnotes are
+written.
+
+### Tables
+
+Tables can be written using pipes and dashes to draw the rows and columns of
+the table. These will be translated to HTML table matching the shape. Example:
+
+```text
+| Header1 | Header2 |
+|---------|---------|
+| abc     | def     |
+```
+
+This example will render similarly to this:
+
+| Header1 | Header2 |
+|---------|---------|
+| abc     | def     |
+
+See the specification for the [GitHub Tables extension][tables] for more
+details on the exact syntax supported.
+
+### Task lists
+
+Task lists can be used as a checklist of items that have been completed.
+Example:
+
+```md
+- [x] Complete task
+- [ ] Incomplete task
+```
+
+This will render as:
+
+> - [x] Complete task
+> - [ ] Incomplete task
+
+See the specification for the [task list extension] for more details.
+
+### Smart punctuation
+
+Some ASCII punctuation sequences will be automatically turned into fancy Unicode
+characters:
+
+| ASCII sequence | Unicode |
+|----------------|---------|
+| `--`           | –       |
+| `---`          | —       |
+| `...`          | …       |
+| `"`            | “ or ”, depending on context |
+| `'`            | ‘ or ’, depending on context |
+
+So, no need to manually enter those Unicode characters!
+
+This feature is disabled by default.
+To enable it, see the [`output.html.curly-quotes`] config option.

+# MathJax Support
+
+mdBook has optional support for math equations through
+[MathJax](https://www.mathjax.org/).
+
+To enable MathJax, you need to add the `mathjax-support` key to your `book.toml`
+under the `output.html` section.
+
+```toml
+[output.html]
+mathjax-support = true
+```
+
+>**Note:** The usual delimiters MathJax uses are not yet supported. You can't
+currently use `$$ ... $$` as delimiters and the `\[ ... \]` delimiters need an
+extra backslash to work. Hopefully this limitation will be lifted soon.
+
+>**Note:** When you use double backslashes in MathJax blocks (for example in
+> commands such as `\begin{cases} \frac 1 2 \\ \frac 3 4 \end{cases}`) you need
+> to add _two extra_ backslashes (e.g., `\begin{cases} \frac 1 2 \\\\ \frac 3 4
+> \end{cases}`).
+
+
+### Inline equations
+Inline equations are delimited by `\\(` and `\\)`. So for example, to render the
+following inline equation \\( \int x dx = \frac{x^2}{2} + C \\) you would write
+the following:
+```
+\\( \int x dx = \frac{x^2}{2} + C \\)
+```
+
+### Block equations
+Block equations are delimited by `\\[` and `\\]`. To render the following
+equation
+
+\\[ \mu = \frac{1}{N} \sum_{i=0} x_i \\]
+
+
+you would write:
+
+```bash
+\\[ \mu = \frac{1}{N} \sum_{i=0} x_i \\]
+```

+# mdBook-specific features
+
+## Hiding code lines
+
+There is a feature in mdBook that lets you hide code lines by prepending them
+with a `#` [like you would with Rustdoc][rustdoc-hide].
+This currently only works with Rust language code blocks.
+
+[rustdoc-hide]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustdoc/documentation-tests.html#hiding-portions-of-the-example
+
+```bash
+# fn main() {
+    let x = 5;
+    let y = 6;
+
+    println!("{}", x + y);
+# }
+```
+
+Will render as
+
+```rust
+# fn main() {
+    let x = 5;
+    let y = 6;
+
+    println!("{}", x + y);
+# }
+```
+
+The code block has an eyeball icon (<i class="fa fa-eye"></i>) which will toggle the visibility of the hidden lines.
+
+## Rust Playground
+
+Rust language code blocks will automatically get a play button (<i class="fa fa-play"></i>) which will execute the code and display the output just below the code block.
+This works by sending the code to the [Rust Playground].
+
+```rust
+println!("Hello, World!");
+```
+
+If there is no `main` function, then the code is automatically wrapped inside one.
+
+If you wish to disable the play button for a code block, you can include the `noplayground` option on the code block like this:
+
+~~~markdown
+```rust,noplayground
+let mut name = String::new();
+std::io::stdin().read_line(&mut name).expect("failed to read line");
+println!("Hello {}!", name);
+```
+~~~
+
+Or, if you wish to disable the play button for all code blocks in your book, you can write the config to the `book.toml` like this.
+
+```toml
+[output.html.playground]
+runnable = false
+```
+
+## Rust code block attributes
+
+Additional attributes can be included in Rust code blocks with comma, space, or tab-separated terms just after the language term. For example:
+
+~~~markdown
+```rust,ignore
+# This example won't be tested.
+panic!("oops!");
+```
+~~~
+
+These are particularly important when using [`mdbook test`] to test Rust examples.
+These use the same attributes as [rustdoc attributes], with a few additions:
+
+* `editable` — Enables the [editor].
+* `noplayground` — Removes the play button, but will still be tested.
+* `mdbook-runnable` — Forces the play button to be displayed.
+  This is intended to be combined with the `ignore` attribute for examples that should not be tested, but you want to allow the reader to run.
+* `ignore` — Will not be tested and no play button is shown, but it is still highlighted as Rust syntax.
+* `should_panic` — When executed, it should produce a panic.
+* `no_run` — The code is compiled when tested, but it is not run.
+  The play button is also not shown.
+* `compile_fail` — The code should fail to compile.
+* `edition2015`, `edition2018`, `edition2021` — Forces the use of a specific Rust edition.
+  See [`rust.edition`] to set this globally.
+

+[rustdoc attributes]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustdoc/documentation-tests.html#attributes
+[editor]: theme/editor.md
+[`rust.edition`]: configuration/general.md#rust-options
+
+## Including files
+
+With the following syntax, you can include files into your book:
+
+```hbs
+\{{#include file.rs}}
+```
+
+The path to the file has to be relative from the current source file.
+
+mdBook will interpret included files as Markdown. Since the include command
+is usually used for inserting code snippets and examples, you will often
+wrap the command with ```` ``` ```` to display the file contents without
+interpreting them.
+
+````hbs
+```
+\{{#include file.rs}}
+```
+````
+
+## Including portions of a file
+Often you only need a specific part of the file, e.g. relevant lines for an
+example. We support four different modes of partial includes:
+
+```hbs
+\{{#include file.rs:2}}
+\{{#include file.rs::10}}
+\{{#include file.rs:2:}}
+\{{#include file.rs:2:10}}
+```
+
+The first command only includes the second line from file `file.rs`. The second
+command includes all lines up to line 10, i.e. the lines from 11 till the end of
+the file are omitted. The third command includes all lines from line 2, i.e. the
+first line is omitted. The last command includes the excerpt of `file.rs`
+consisting of lines 2 to 10.
+
+To avoid breaking your book when modifying included files, you can also
+include a specific section using anchors instead of line numbers.
+An anchor is a pair of matching lines. The line beginning an anchor must
+match the regex `ANCHOR:\s*[\w_-]+` and similarly the ending line must match
+the regex `ANCHOR_END:\s*[\w_-]+`. This allows you to put anchors in
+any kind of commented line.
+
+Consider the following file to include:
+```rs
+/* ANCHOR: all */
+
+// ANCHOR: component
+struct Paddle {
+    hello: f32,
+}
+// ANCHOR_END: component
+
+////////// ANCHOR: system
+impl System for MySystem { ... }
+////////// ANCHOR_END: system
+
+/* ANCHOR_END: all */
+```
+
+Then in the book, all you have to do is:
+````hbs
+Here is a component:
+```rust,no_run,noplayground
+\{{#include file.rs:component}}
+```
+
+Here is a system:
+```rust,no_run,noplayground
+\{{#include file.rs:system}}
+```
+
+This is the full file.
+```rust,no_run,noplayground
+\{{#include file.rs:all}}
+```
+````
+
+Lines containing anchor patterns inside the included anchor are ignored.
+
+## Including a file but initially hiding all except specified lines
+
+The `rustdoc_include` helper is for including code from external Rust files that contain complete
+examples, but only initially showing particular lines specified with line numbers or anchors in the
+same way as with `include`.
+
+The lines not in the line number range or between the anchors will still be included, but they will
+be prefaced with `#`. This way, a reader can expand the snippet to see the complete example, and
+Rustdoc will use the complete example when you run `mdbook test`.
+
+For example, consider a file named `file.rs` that contains this Rust program:
+
+```rust
+fn main() {
+    let x = add_one(2);
+    assert_eq!(x, 3);
+}
+
+fn add_one(num: i32) -> i32 {
+    num + 1
+}
+```
+
+We can include a snippet that initially shows only line 2 by using this syntax:
+
+````hbs
+To call the `add_one` function, we pass it an `i32` and bind the returned value to `x`:
+
+```rust
+\{{#rustdoc_include file.rs:2}}
+```
+````
+
+This would have the same effect as if we had manually inserted the code and hidden all but line 2
+using `#`:
+
+````hbs
+To call the `add_one` function, we pass it an `i32` and bind the returned value to `x`:
+
+```rust
+# fn main() {
+    let x = add_one(2);
+#     assert_eq!(x, 3);
+# }
+#
+# fn add_one(num: i32) -> i32 {
+#     num + 1
+# }
+```
+````
+
+That is, it looks like this (click the "expand" icon to see the rest of the file):
+
+```rust
+# fn main() {
+    let x = add_one(2);
+#     assert_eq!(x, 3);
+# }
+#
+# fn add_one(num: i32) -> i32 {
+#     num + 1
+# }
+```
+
+## Inserting runnable Rust files
+
+With the following syntax, you can insert runnable Rust files into your book:
+
+```hbs
+\{{#playground file.rs}}
+```
+
+The path to the Rust file has to be relative from the current source file.
+
+When play is clicked, the code snippet will be sent to the [Rust Playground] to be
+compiled and run. The result is sent back and displayed directly underneath the
+code.
+
+Here is what a rendered code snippet looks like:
+
+{{#playground example.rs}}
+
+Any additional values passed after the filename will be included as attributes of the code block.
+For example `\{{#playground example.rs editable}}` will create the code block like the following:
+
+~~~markdown
+```rust,editable
+# Contents of example.rs here.
+```
+~~~
+
+And the `editable` attribute will enable the [editor] as described at [Rust code block attributes](#rust-code-block-attributes).
+
+[Rust Playground]: https://play.rust-lang.org/
+
+## Controlling page \<title\>
+
+A chapter can set a \<title\> that is different from its entry in the table of
+contents (sidebar) by including a `\{{#title ...}}` near the top of the page.
+
+```hbs
+\{{#title My Title}}
+```

+# SUMMARY.md
+
+The summary file is used by mdBook to know what chapters to include, in what
+order they should appear, what their hierarchy is and where the source files
+are. Without this file, there is no book.
+
+This markdown file must be named `SUMMARY.md`. Its formatting
+is very strict and must follow the structure outlined below to allow for easy
+parsing. Any element not specified below, be it formatting or textual, is likely
+to be ignored at best, or may cause an error when attempting to build the book.
+
+### Structure
+
+1. ***Title*** - While optional, it's common practice to begin with a title, generally <code
+   class="language-markdown"># Summary</code>. This is ignored by the parser however, and
+   can be omitted.
+   ```markdown
+   # Summary
+   ```
+
+1. ***Prefix Chapter*** - Before the main numbered chapters, prefix chapters can be added
+   that will not be numbered. This is useful for forewords,
+   introductions, etc. There are, however, some constraints. Prefix chapters cannot be
+   nested; they should all be on the root level. And you cannot add
+   prefix chapters once you have added numbered chapters.
+   ```markdown
+   [A Prefix Chapter](relative/path/to/markdown.md)
+
+   - [First Chapter](relative/path/to/markdown2.md)
+   ```
+
+1. ***Part Title*** - Headers can be used as a title for the following numbered
+   chapters. This can be used to logically separate different sections
+   of the book. The title is rendered as unclickable text.
+   Titles are optional, and the numbered chapters can be broken into as many
+   parts as desired.
+   ```markdown
+   # My Part Title
+
+   - [First Chapter](relative/path/to/markdown.md)
+   ```
+
+1. ***Numbered Chapter*** - Numbered chapters outline the main content of the book
+   and can be nested, resulting in a nice hierarchy
+   (chapters, sub-chapters, etc.).
+   ```markdown
+   # Title of Part
+
+   - [First Chapter](relative/path/to/markdown.md)
+   - [Second Chapter](relative/path/to/markdown2.md)
+      - [Sub Chapter](relative/path/to/markdown3.md)
+
+   # Title of Another Part
+
+   - [Another Chapter](relative/path/to/markdown4.md)
+   ```
+   Numbered chapters can be denoted with either `-` or `*` (do not mix delimiters). 
+   
+1. ***Suffix Chapter*** - Like prefix chapters, suffix chapters are unnumbered, but they come after 
+   numbered chapters.
+   ```markdown
+   - [Last Chapter](relative/path/to/markdown.md)
+
+   [Title of Suffix Chapter](relative/path/to/markdown2.md)
+   ```
+
+1. ***Draft chapters*** - Draft chapters are chapters without a file and thus content.
+   The purpose of a draft chapter is to signal future chapters still to be written.
+   Or when still laying out the structure of the book to avoid creating the files
+   while you are still changing the structure of the book a lot.
+   Draft chapters will be rendered in the HTML renderer as disabled links in the table
+   of contents, as you can see for the next chapter in the table of contents on the left.
+   Draft chapters are written like normal chapters but without writing the path to the file.
+   ```markdown
+   - [Draft Chapter]()
+   ```
+
+1. ***Separators*** - Separators can be added before, in between, and after any other element. They result
+   in an HTML rendered line in the built table of contents.  A separator is
+   a line containing exclusively dashes and at least three of them: `---`.
+   ```markdown
+   # My Part Title
+   
+   [A Prefix Chapter](relative/path/to/markdown.md)
+
+   ---
+
+   - [First Chapter](relative/path/to/markdown2.md)
+   ```
+  
+
+### Example
+
+Below is the markdown source for the `SUMMARY.md` for this guide, with the resulting table
+of contents as rendered to the left.
+
+```markdown
+{{#include ../SUMMARY.md}}

+# Theme
+
+The default renderer uses a [handlebars](http://handlebarsjs.com/) template to
+render your markdown files and comes with a default theme included in the mdBook
+binary.
+
+The theme is totally customizable, you can selectively replace every file from
+the theme by your own by adding a `theme` directory next to `src` folder in your
+project root. Create a new file with the name of the file you want to override
+and now that file will be used instead of the default file.
+
+Here are the files you can override:
+
+- **_index.hbs_** is the handlebars template.
+- **_head.hbs_** is appended to the HTML `<head>` section.
+- **_header.hbs_** content is appended on top of every book page.
+- **_css/_** contains the CSS files for styling the book.
+    - **_css/chrome.css_** is for UI elements.
+    - **_css/general.css_** is the base styles.
+    - **_css/print.css_** is the style for printer output.
+    - **_css/variables.css_** contains variables used in other CSS files.
+- **_book.js_** is mostly used to add client side functionality, like hiding /
+  un-hiding the sidebar, changing the theme, ...
+- **_highlight.js_** is the JavaScript that is used to highlight code snippets,
+  you should not need to modify this.
+- **_highlight.css_** is the theme used for the code highlighting.
+- **_favicon.svg_** and **_favicon.png_** the favicon that will be used. The SVG
+  version is used by [newer browsers].
+
+Generally, when you want to tweak the theme, you don't need to override all the
+files. If you only need changes in the stylesheet, there is no point in
+overriding all the other files. Because custom files take precedence over
+built-in ones, they will not get updated with new fixes / features.
+
+**Note:** When you override a file, it is possible that you break some
+functionality. Therefore I recommend to use the file from the default theme as
+template and only add / modify what you need. You can copy the default theme
+into your source directory automatically by using `mdbook init --theme` and just
+remove the files you don't want to override.
+
+`mdbook init --theme` will not create every file listed above.
+Some files, such as `head.hbs`, do not have built-in equivalents.
+Just create the file if you need it.
+
+If you completely replace all built-in themes, be sure to also set
+[`output.html.preferred-dark-theme`] in the config, which defaults to the
+built-in `navy` theme.

+# Editor
+
+In addition to providing runnable code playgrounds, mdBook optionally allows them
+to be editable. In order to enable editable code blocks, the following needs to
+be added to the ***book.toml***:
+
+```toml
+[output.html.playground]
+editable = true
+```
+
+To make a specific block available for editing, the attribute `editable` needs
+to be added to it:
+
+~~~markdown
+```rust,editable
+fn main() {
+    let number = 5;
+    print!("{}", number);
+}
+```
+~~~
+
+The above will result in this editable playground:
+
+```rust,editable
+fn main() {
+    let number = 5;
+    print!("{}", number);
+}
+```
+
+Note the new `Undo Changes` button in the editable playgrounds.
+
+## Customizing the Editor
+
+By default, the editor is the [Ace](https://ace.c9.io/) editor, but, if desired,
+the functionality may be overridden by providing a different folder:
+
+```toml
+[output.html.playground]
+editable = true
+editor = "/path/to/editor"
+```
+
+Note that for the editor changes to function correctly, the `book.js` inside of
+the `theme` folder will need to be overridden as it has some couplings with the
+default Ace editor.

+# index.hbs
+
+`index.hbs` is the handlebars template that is used to render the book. The
+markdown files are processed to html and then injected in that template.
+
+If you want to change the layout or style of your book, chances are that you
+will have to modify this template a little bit. Here is what you need to know.
+
+## Data
+
+A lot of data is exposed to the handlebars template with the "context". In the
+handlebars template you can access this information by using
+
+```handlebars
+{{name_of_property}}
+```
+
+Here is a list of the properties that are exposed:
+
+- ***language*** Language of the book in the form `en`, as specified in `book.toml` (if not specified, defaults to `en`). To use in <code
+  class="language-html">\<html lang="{{ language }}"></code> for example.
+- ***title*** Title used for the current page. This is identical to `{{ chapter_title }} - {{ book_title }}` unless `book_title` is not set in which case it just defaults to the `chapter_title`.
+- ***book_title*** Title of the book, as specified in `book.toml`
+- ***chapter_title*** Title of the current chapter, as listed in `SUMMARY.md`
+
+- ***path*** Relative path to the original markdown file from the source
+  directory
+- ***content*** This is the rendered markdown.
+- ***path_to_root*** This is a path containing exclusively `../`'s that points
+  to the root of the book from the current file. Since the original directory
+  structure is maintained, it is useful to prepend relative links with this
+  `path_to_root`.
+
+- ***chapters*** Is an array of dictionaries of the form
+  ```json
+  {"section": "1.2.1", "name": "name of this chapter", "path": "dir/markdown.md"}
+  ```
+  containing all the chapters of the book. It is used for example to construct
+  the table of contents (sidebar).
+
+## Handlebars Helpers
+
+In addition to the properties you can access, there are some handlebars helpers
+at your disposal.
+
+### 1. toc
+
+The toc helper is used like this
+
+```handlebars
+{{#toc}}{{/toc}}
+```
+
+and outputs something that looks like this, depending on the structure of your
+book
+
+```html
+<ul class="chapter">
+    <li><a href="link/to/file.html">Some chapter</a></li>
+    <li>
+        <ul class="section">
+            <li><a href="link/to/other_file.html">Some other Chapter</a></li>
+        </ul>
+    </li>
+</ul>
+```
+
+If you would like to make a toc with another structure, you have access to the
+chapters property containing all the data. The only limitation at the moment
+is that you would have to do it with JavaScript instead of with a handlebars
+helper.
+
+```html
+<script>
+var chapters = {{chapters}};
+// Processing here
+</script>
+```
+
+### 2. previous / next
+
+The previous and next helpers expose a `link` and `name` property to the
+previous and next chapters.
+
+They are used like this
+
+```handlebars
+{{#previous}}
+    <a href="{{link}}" class="nav-chapters previous">
+        <i class="fa fa-angle-left"></i>
+    </a>
+{{/previous}}
+```
+
+The inner html will only be rendered if the previous / next chapter exists.
+Of course the inner html can be changed to your liking.

+# Syntax Highlighting
+
+mdBook uses [Highlight.js](https://highlightjs.org) with a custom theme
+for syntax highlighting.
+
+Automatic language detection has been turned off, so you will probably want to
+specify the programming language you use like this:
+
+~~~markdown
+```rust
+fn main() {
+    // Some code
+}
+```
+~~~
+
+## Supported languages
+
+These languages are supported by default, but you can add more by supplying
+your own `highlight.js` file:
+
+- apache
+- armasm
+- bash
+- c
+- coffeescript
+- cpp
+- csharp
+- css
+- d
+- diff
+- go
+- handlebars
+- haskell
+- http
+- ini
+- java
+- javascript
+- json
+- julia
+- kotlin
+- less
+- lua
+- makefile
+- markdown
+- nginx
+- objectivec
+- perl
+- php
+- plaintext
+- properties
+- python
+- r
+- ruby
+- rust
+- scala
+- scss
+- shell
+- sql
+- swift
+- typescript
+- x86asm
+- xml
+- yaml
+
+## Custom theme
+Like the rest of the theme, the files used for syntax highlighting can be
+overridden with your own.
+
+- ***highlight.js*** normally you shouldn't have to overwrite this file, unless
+  you want to use a more recent version.
+- ***highlight.css*** theme used by highlight.js for syntax highlighting.
+
+If you want to use another theme for `highlight.js` download it from their
+website, or make it yourself, rename it to `highlight.css` and put it in
+the `theme` folder of your book.
+
+Now your theme will be used instead of the default theme.
+
+## Hiding code lines
+
+There is a feature in mdBook that lets you hide code lines by prepending them
+with a `#`.
+
+
+```bash
+# fn main() {
+    let x = 5;
+    let y = 6;
+
+    println!("{}", x + y);
+# }
+```
+
+Will render as
+
+```rust
+# fn main() {
+    let x = 5;
+    let y = 7;
+
+    println!("{}", x + y);
+# }
+```
+
+**At the moment, this only works for code examples that are annotated with
+`rust`. Because it would collide with semantics of some programming languages.
+In the future, we want to make this configurable through the `book.toml` so that
+everyone can benefit from it.**
+
+
+## Improve default theme
+
+If you think the default theme doesn't look quite right for a specific language,
+or could be improved, feel free to [submit a new
+issue](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/issues) explaining what you
+have in mind and I will take a look at it.
+
+You could also create a pull-request with the proposed improvements.
+
+Overall the theme should be light and sober, without too many flashy colors.

+# Creating a Book
+
+Once you have the `mdbook` CLI tool installed, you can use it to create and render a book.
+
+## Initializing a book
+
+The `mdbook init` command will create a new directory containing an empty book for you to get started.
+Give it the name of the directory that you want to create:
+
+```sh
+mdbook init my-first-book
+```
+
+It will ask a few questions before generating the book.
+After answering the questions, you can change the current directory into the new book:
+
+```sh
+cd my-first-book
+```
+
+There are several ways to render a book, but one of the easiest methods is to use the `serve` command, which will build your book and start a local webserver:
+
+```sh
+mdbook serve --open
+```
+
+The `--open` option will open your default web browser to view your new book.
+You can leave the server running even while you edit the content of the book, and `mdbook` will automatically rebuild the output *and* automatically refresh your web browser.
+
+Check out the [CLI Guide](../cli/index.html) for more information about other `mdbook` commands and CLI options.
+
+## Anatomy of a book
+
+A book is built from several files which define the settings and layout of the book.
+
+### `book.toml`
+
+In the root of your book, there is a `book.toml` file which contains settings for describing how to build your book.
+This is written in the [TOML markup language](https://toml.io/).
+The default settings are usually good enough to get you started.
+When you are interested in exploring more features and options that mdBook provides, check out the [Configuration chapter](../format/configuration/index.html) for more details.
+
+A very basic `book.toml` can be as simple as this:
+
+```toml
+[book]
+title = "My First Book"
+```
+
+### `SUMMARY.md`
+
+The next major part of a book is the summary file located at `src/SUMMARY.md`.
+This file contains a list of all the chapters in the book.
+Before a chapter can be viewed, it must be added to this list.
+
+Here's a basic summary file with a few chapters:
+
+```md
+# Summary
+
+[Introduction](README.md)
+
+- [My First Chapter](my-first-chapter.md)
+- [Nested example](nested/README.md)
+    - [Sub-chapter](nested/sub-chapter.md)
+```
+
+Try opening up `src/SUMMARY.md` in your editor and adding a few chapters.
+If any of the chapter files do not exist, `mdbook` will automatically create them for you.
+
+For more details on other formatting options for the summary file, check out the [Summary chapter](../format/summary.md).
+
+### Source files
+
+The content of your book is all contained in the `src` directory.
+Each chapter is a separate Markdown file.
+Typically, each chapter starts with a level 1 heading with the title of the chapter.
+
+```md
+# My First Chapter
+
+Fill out your content here.
+```
+
+The precise layout of the files is up to you.
+The organization of the files will correspond to the HTML files generated, so keep in mind that the file layout is part of the URL of each chapter.
+
+While the `mdbook serve` command is running, you can open any of the chapter files and start editing them.
+Each time you save the file, `mdbook` will rebuild the book and refresh your web browser.
+
+Check out the [Markdown chapter](../format/markdown.md) for more information on formatting the content of your chapters.
+
+All other files in the `src` directory will be included in the output.
+So if you have images or other static files, just include them somewhere in the `src` directory.
+
+## Publishing a book
+
+Once you've written your book, you may want to host it somewhere for others to view.
+The first step is to build the output of the book.
+This can be done with the `mbdook build` command in the same directory where the `book.toml` file is located:
+
+```sh
+mdbook build
+```
+
+This will generate a directory named `book` which contains the HTML content of your book.
+You can then place this directory on any web server to host it.
+
+For more information about publishing and deploying, check out the [Continuous Integration chapter](../continuous-integration.md) for more.

+# Installation
+
+There are multiple ways to install the mdBook CLI tool.
+Choose any one of the methods below that best suit your needs.
+If you are installing mdBook for automatic deployment, check out the [continuous integration] chapter for more examples on how to install.
+
+[continuous integration]: ../continuous-integration.md
+
+## Pre-compiled binaries
+
+Executable binaries are available for download on the [GitHub Releases page][releases].
+Download the binary for your platform (Windows, macOS, or Linux) and extract the archive.
+The archive contains an `mdbook` executable which you can run to build your books.
+
+To make it easier to run, put the path to the binary into your `PATH`.
+
+[releases]: https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/releases
+
+## Build from source using Rust
+
+To build the `mdbook` executable from source, you will first need to install Rust and Cargo.
+Follow the instructions on the [Rust installation page].
+mdBook currently requires at least Rust version 1.54.
+
+Once you have installed Rust, the following command can be used to build and install mdBook:
+
+```sh
+cargo install mdbook
+```
+
+This will automatically download mdBook from [crates.io], build it, and install it in Cargo's global binary directory (`~/.cargo/bin/` by default).
+
+[Rust installation page]: https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install
+[crates.io]: https://crates.io/
+
+### Installing the latest master version
+
+The version published to crates.io will ever so slightly be behind the version hosted on GitHub.
+If you need the latest version you can build the git version of mdBook yourself.
+Cargo makes this ***super easy***!
+
+```sh
+cargo install --git https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook.git mdbook
+```
+
+Again, make sure to add the Cargo bin directory to your `PATH`.
+
+If you are interested in making modifications to mdBook itself, check out the [Contributing Guide] for more information.

+# Reading Books
+
+This chapter gives an introduction on how to interact with a book produced by mdBook.
+This assumes you are reading an HTML book.
+The options and formatting will be different for other output formats such as PDF.
+
+A book is organized into *chapters*.
+Each chapter is a separate page.
+Chapters can be nested into a hierarchy of sub-chapters.
+Typically, each chapter will be organized into a series of *headings* to subdivide a chapter.
+
+## Navigation
+
+There are several methods for navigating through the chapters of a book.
+
+The **sidebar** on the left provides a list of all chapters.
+Clicking on any of the chapter titles will load that page.
+
+The sidebar may not automatically appear if the window is too narrow, particularly on mobile displays.
+In that situation, the menu icon (three horizontal bars) at the top-left of the page can be pressed to open and close the sidebar.
+
+The **arrow buttons** at the bottom of the page can be used to navigate to the previous or the next chapter.
+
+The **left and right arrow keys** on the keyboard can be used to navigate to the previous or the next chapter.
+
+## Top menu bar
+
+The menu bar at the top of the page provides some icons for interacting with the book.
+The icons displayed will depend on the settings of how the book was generated.
+
+| Icon | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| <i class="fa fa-bars"></i> | Opens and closes the chapter listing sidebar. |
+| <i class="fa fa-paint-brush"></i> | Opens a picker to choose a different color theme. |
+| <i class="fa fa-search"></i> | Opens a search bar for searching within the book. |
+| <i class="fa fa-print"></i> | Instructs the web browser to print the entire book. |
+| <i class="fa fa-github"></i> | Opens a link to the website that hosts the source code of the book. |
+| <i class="fa fa-edit"></i> | Opens a page to directly edit the source of the page you are currently reading. |
+
+Tapping the menu bar will scroll the page to the top.
+
+## Search
+
+Each book has a built-in search system.
+Pressing the search icon (<i class="fa fa-search"></i>) in the menu bar, or pressing the `S` key on the keyboard will open an input box for entering search terms.
+Typing some terms will show matching chapters and sections in real time.
+
+Clicking any of the results will jump to that section.
+The up and down arrow keys can be used to navigate the results, and enter will open the highlighted section.
+
+After loading a search result, the matching search terms will be highlighted in the text.
+Clicking a highlighted word or pressing the `Esc` key will remove the highlighting.
+
+## Code blocks
+
+mdBook books are often used for programming projects, and thus support highlighting code blocks and samples.
+Code blocks may contain several different icons for interacting with them:
+
+| Icon | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| <i class="fa fa-copy"></i> | Copies the code block into your local clipboard, to allow pasting into another application. |
+| <i class="fa fa-play"></i> | For Rust code examples, this will execute the sample code and display the compiler output just below the example (see [playground]). |
+| <i class="fa fa-eye"></i> | For Rust code examples, this will toggle visibility of "hidden" lines. Sometimes, larger examples will hide lines which are not particularly relevant to what is being illustrated (see [hiding code lines]). |
+| <i class="fa fa-history"></i> | For [editable code examples][editor], this will undo any changes you have made. |
+
+Here's an example:
+
+```rust
+println!("Hello, World!");
+```
+
+[editor]: ../format/theme/editor.md
+[playground]: ../format/mdbook.md#rust-playground
+[hiding code lines]: ../format/mdbook.md#hiding-code-lines
