Welcome to the main entry point to the Stencila ecosystem. This repo contains the stencila command line tool which is the top level 'umbrella' package to use our various libraries.
:sparkles: We are are undergoing a major reboot in this repository (and many of our others) to build a single entry point for reproducible documents. We will deprecate
stencila/cliandstencila/desktopand instead build those binaries here. We will also be deprecating binary builds of our other repositories as they are integrated into this one.
Stencila is available as a pre-compiled, standalone command line tool.
