About
Interactive writing on the web
Idyll is a tool that makes it easier to author interactive narratives for the web. The goal of the project is to provide a friendly markup language — and an associated toolchain — that can be used to create dynamic, text-driven web pages.
Idyll helps you create documents that use common narrative techniques such as embedding interactive charts and graphs, responding to scroll events, and explorable explanations. Additionally, its readable syntax facilitates collaboration between writers, editors, designers, and programmers on complex projects.

Commission - Your company can commission a sponsored article! Your branding will be displayed, and you can choose the topic (although we must approve of it and have editorial discretion). Reach out to @mathisonian on twitter or github for more details.
