Hello,
I would like to build this book into a epub file.

Do you have some build instructions for me?

Regards.

We use Pandoc to convert the markdown files into HTML, and Pandoc can be configured to output epub (and a number of other formats, e.g. pdf or docx). The individual book chapters are in the _posts folder.

In order to try a CSS fix (see Disqus comments) myself, I wanted to re-build the HTML page. What exactly is your workflow to accomplish this? I expected a rake task to do the job.

I'm using the sass and jekyll-asset-pipeline gems together with jekyll. You should change the file _assets/stylesheets/style.scss.

Thanks! I'd appreciate if you provide the build instruction code (in the Rakefile, preferably) to get started quickly.

I've added some basic build instructions to the wiki: https://github.com/openingscience/book/wiki. I will include more documentation (and polish the templates) as we move along.
