This is DGS, short for Document Generation System (pronounced ['degeʃ]).

DGS is a compositor for structured documents, mostly those built on standardized frameworks, where the structure is always the same (or very similar) but the underlying data change. It was primarily built for correspondence seminar problems, real-time competitions, lectures, homework sheets and handouts for university courses. It also includes basic internationalization.

The same content can be repeatedly rendered to various templates or output formats, for instance XeLaTeX for printable documents and HTML for the web. DGS is built with Makefile, Python, Markdown and XeLaTeX, and it uses pandoc, jinja2, rsvg-convert, and dvisvgm to process content.

The authors would like to express gratitude to

• John Gruber, for creating Markdown, without which the entire project would not be worth developing;
• Armin Ronacher, for the Jinja2 template engine, that makes composing documents practical, if not enjoyable;
• Joseph Wright, for the wonderful siunitx package, which has made our life with LaTeX orders of magnitude easier;
• Christian Tellechea for chemfig, which allowed Náboj Chemistry to escape the Microsoft hell;
• Sebastian Schubert for FontPro, which did the same for the seventh circle of Computer Modern.
• Hernan Grecco for pint, which finally solved the long-standing problems of physics templating.
