Hi folks! I just completed this literate org-mode on how to build Emacs. It's "literate" because I try my best not to hard-code anything in the document, and if you turn off all org-babel caching, it will actually build GNU Emacs on either Debian or RedHat systems. This org document is also somewhat interesting, because with a few tweaks it can either generate a document that describes how to build Emacs on RedHat or Debian systems.
I'm presenting the techniques I used to make this document at the SeaGL conference in a few days, and I'm seeking feedback from folks on the document. In particular:
Thanks in advance for any feedback!
Cool, I'll check it out! Impressive amount of work I can tell already.
Oh lord this is so cool!
