The technical bit

This guide was put together by Five Simple Steps, an independent publisher of web design books that closed in 2014, as a way of giving back to the web community.

The process described in the documentation reflects the way the team at Five Simple Steps worked, so it's best suited to people working on Macs, and references tools they used.

Bear in mind that you'll need access to a variety of devices (at least an iPad and Kindle) to test and view your ebook.
