OurBigBook Web is a bit like Wikipedia, but where each user can have their own version of each page, and it cannot be edited by others without permission.
And it is also a bit like Obsidian (a personal knowledge base): you can optionally keep all your notes in plaintext markup files in your computer and publish either on OurBigBook.com or as a static HTML website on your own domain.
The goal of the OurBigBook Project is to make university students write perfect natural sciences books for free as they are trying to learn for their lectures.
