Noam Yorav-Raphael e3ae28f159 Automatic conversion using pandoc
I just run `pandoc {fn} -f docbook -t markdown --wrap=none -s -o {fn.with_suffix(".md")}` over all .xml files in pills/, and on /book.xml

I manually created SUMMARY.md based on the list in book.xml.

Version Nix Pills

Preface

This is a ported version of the Nix Pills, a series of blog posts written by Luca Bruno (aka Lethalman) and originally published in 2014 and 2015. It provides a tutorial introduction into the Nix package manager and Nixpkgs package collection, in the form of short chapters called 'pills'.

Since the Nix Pills are considered a classic introduction to Nix, an effort to port them to the current format was led by Graham Christensen (aka grahamc / gchristensen) and other contributors in 2017.

For an up-to-date version, please visit https://nixos.org/guides/nix-pills/. An EPUB version is also available.

If you encounter problems, please report them on the nixos/nix-pills issue tracker.
