I love #LibreOffice (in particular Writer) because it makes it fast and easy to lay out the internal files for paperbacks I publish through POD platforms. It is more powerful than Web-based tools, has better layout features than MS Word, and it's free -- what's not to love?

I love #LibreOffice because I can send my teachers assignments that were completed using fully free software without them ever realizing I left the walled garden of Microsoft. :)

It is hard to figure out how to use the API and questions on Stackoverflow are hard to align with the #libreoffice examples. For example, stackoverflow.com/q/62769483 does not really help. I guess you need to be familiar with the API before you will understand it.
@libreoffice, do you have any pointers to become more comfortable with the API?
