Using Mkdocs Material to Build Intelligent Textbooks

[dmccreary]

Happy New Year everyone,

I wanted to let everyone know I am working with some high schools, colleges and universities to build "Intelligent Textbooks" using mkdocs-material and generative AI. This is still a work-in-progress, but here is an example on-line book on how to build an intelligent textbook:

I would love your feedback and any suggestions you have to make it easier for my non-technical instructors to build these online textbooks.

Also, make sure you know that a "Concept Graph" is the core data structure we need to use:

Our first goal is to build tools to create a 2.95 level book so it can be personalized by a LMS. See this on the five levels of intelligent textbooks.

Looking forward to a wonderful 2025 working with the mkdocs-material team!
