All mardown files under the “cure-dolly/” directory have been forked from Kellenok/cure-script.
First and foremost, this project only exists because Mordraug and Nunko spent a lot of time transcribing all of Cure Dolly’s videos and sharing them in this Google Docs. Many thanks to them!
For my part, I (Kellen) converted script to Markdown, changed the formatting slightly, and published it using Vitepress, which I find more convenient than Google Docs or PDF.
What’s changed
- Changed the underlined text to bold due to personal preference.
- All text in “quotes” became
highlightedin color - Changed note type from italic text to speсial containers
- I have added a very rough and imprecise grouping of lessons. This was only done to allow the list to be collapsed.
- WIP merge line-by-line text into paragraph text
Something else may have broken during all the changes, but there shouldn’t be any critical breaks.
