A high-speed Ruby-based text processor that converts AsciiDoc content into professional HTML5, PDF, and EPUB3 formats.

Asciidoctor serves as the definitive implementation of the AsciiDoc markup language (originally created by Stuart Rackham). Lead developer Dan Allen maintains this Ruby-based engine to deliver speeds up to 40x faster than the legacy Python toolchain. It integrates natively with build tools like Gradle, Maven, and Ant while powering documentation for major platforms (GitHub and GitLab). Users generate professional output (HTML5, PDF, and man pages) from plain-text files using a modular extension API and a comprehensive CSS-based styling system.

### [Shifting Out: Using AI to Translate Across the Organization](https://atlanta.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_ws8aA88TM4Y)

I will explores how AI can act as a translation layer across the organization. Not replacing people, but helping teams shift perspective without losing meaning. How to: Translate executive intent into actionable product and engineering scopes Normalize language between product, design, engineering, and marketing Preserve context while shifting between abstraction levels (strategy ↔ tactics ↔ implementation) Reduce “telephone game” loss across async, distributed teams Rather than focusing on prompt tricks or specific models, this talk centers on organizational leverage: where AI creates clarity, where it introduces risk, and how to design workflows that make translation reliable instead of fragile.
