This book is being opensourced [1]. This involves transforming the LaTeX source into Markdown, and updating all scripts to ensure all the automation works well. I have made good steps forward, but it will take some time for things to iron out. If you find issue, please report them here. If you like this book, please give the GitHub repository a star.
