Orginal Welcome

This is an Asciidoc book of Simon Wardley's "Wardley Maps". It simply takes all his medium posts and joins them together for ease of reading. The intention is to be entirely faithful to the original posts - I've not even fixed the few spelling mistakes - while allowing various output versions to be generated, e.g. HTML, and .mobi for Kindle e-readers. It is made available under the same Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike-4.0-International licence as the original posts.

Welcome to German Translation

The German translation is the result of an automated translation with API services from deepl.com. No manual postprocessing has been done. Feel free to amend by creating merge requests to this repo.
You find the script in the base directory, it is named translate.sh. Courtesy Martin Jahr (@selfscrum), Same Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License applies as for the original text.
To make the script work, you need to purchase a deepl API access and set the environment variable DEEPL_AUTH_KEY to the auth token provided to you by deepl.
Since deepl is paid by characters translated, the translation of the complete book is about 20 USD which I spent for you. If you want to donate: Buy A Coffee for our non-profit-organisation Raum für natürliches Lernen.
If you feel alienated by the asciidoctor format, do the following after translation, which is completed irritatingly quick after the long wait for the translation ;)

sudo apt install pandoc
for i in $(ls -1 *.adoc.de) ; do
    asciidoctor -b docbook -a leveloffset=+1 -o - $i | pandoc  --atx-headers --wrap=preserve -t markdown_strict -f docbook - > $i.md
done
