This extension led to me changing the way I write and share knowledge. Readable & searchable plain text asciidoc (.adoc) files viewed direct with this extension become beautiful HTML documents with diagrams, tables of contents, and more. Using the one sentence per line style of writing makes authoring comprehensible guides so much easier and faster.
