I have very few chess books but from what I have and the articles I have read online, I like Jeremy Silman's style :)

I'll admit I'm a sucker for Kamil Plichta's enthusiasm and terrible jokes. :D

Also - maybe Chessbook would be a good pairing for this? Marries the Stockfish analysis with frequency and lichess database. https://www.chessbook.com/

I like a lot the courses by Alex Colovic and Robert Ramirez. I found them really helpful for beginner to intermediate players. In particular the video explanations are so good. ChatGPT and Stockfish cannot reach such level!! Luckily!

A written blog series with breakdowns for every step along the proces maybe then? It could be really interesting to be able to reproduce and improve on your methods etc. I really think this has potential to be great content. Both as entertainment/research but also to engage with your community.
