1) Visual Studio Code, because writing in markdown prevents unexpected formatting issue. Also great for managing notes together with the main text.

2) Github, because backups are great and it makes it simple to switch devices.

3) PowerShell, because turning markdown into ebooks by hand is a pain.

That pipeline execution also has some really heavy impact on how errors need to be processed - specifically, to not only have deadly errors, but also errors that the pipeline can survive, if you so chose.
Covered that part in this conference talk:

Designing Commands for the PowerShell Pipeline - Friedrich Weinmann - PSConfEU 2025
Designing Commands for the PowerShell Pipeline - Friedrich Weinmann - PSConfEU 2025 YouTube video by PowerShell Conference EU

The starting point is to look at how the pipeline gets executed and what that means for output. I think I did a fair job covering that in this talk at this year's PSConfEU:

Worth it, as far as I am concerned, but I'm severely biased here, having gone through the process more than a decade ago.
A lot of it comes down to the pipeline and how it is executed.
Now, I wont judge if you are happy to dislike PowerShell and leave it at that.
In case you want to delve deeper ...

Can definitely see why. On top of the verbosity, it breaks so many expectations you bring from other languages, it just feels unintuitive.
There's a reason for that - a good one, IMO - but until you wrap you head around that, you get the stick, but not the carrot.

PSFramework.NuGet | PSFramework Project Getting the right PowerShell module to right location can be a lot more challenging that it should be.

Heya #powershell folks,
tired of struggling to get your modules deployed to where you need them?
Of needing to enable PackageManagement tools?
Want to simplify configuring internal repositories? Authenticating to said repos?
I just might have the thing for you:

So I went ahead and implemented (yet another) level-less system.
Been many years, and you learn _a lot_ about systems, balance, and player motivations as you go.
Especially when you factor in the world and how the things the system describes need to (at least vaguely) make sense in it ...

Playing a mage throwing Fireballs? Sure, no problem.
Playing the priest of a God of thievery - well, have fun multiclassing priest/rogue.
Every lost level spent pursuing your flair choice punishes the player with (comparative) weakness.

A game night with friends playing Pathfinder. I love myself a good, long-term progression, I'm ok with a system-heavy approach.
But the way progression worked - level-gated - means it strongly limited the fantasies you can play to the type the designers intended.
