"He devised the first calendar in China which was called "Huang Di's calendar" or the "Huang calendar".
He also engaged in the study of medicine with a famous medical man of that time named Qi Bo. The medical theories they developed were later written into a medical classic by posterity which was given the title of The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine.
Huang Di also had his wife teach the people how to raise silkworms and make clothes of different colours.
He ordered Cang Jie, his chronicler, to set about devising a writing system and had his music officer make all kinds of musical instruments. Under his leadership, the people had created and invented many new things. They built houses, vehicles and boats. They made weapons of bronze. The end result of all this was that the Yellow River valley became the cradle of Chinese civilization and a centre of ancient civilization of mankind.

From another website...The Scions of Huang Di and Yan Di

Also..one of the oldest erotics books is the story of "The Yellow Emperor and the Plain Girl." Pretty good reading...lol.

Huang Di is highly regarded for his wisdom and guidance. The medical book is still used as a valuable reference today.

"Chinese legend of how Emperor Huangdi fought Emperor Yangdi in the Plain Of Banquan (also called Plain Of Zhulu) His vanguard was made up of bears, wolves, pheasants, eagles and kites."
(Lie Zi - Writings Of Lie Yu Kou.)

"...The Yellow Emperor developed skills in warcraft and allied himself with powerful lords to create peaceful surroundings for the people. When The Emperor was forced to wage war, he had a purpose. His greatest enemy was Yang Di, and in the battles at Banquan the Yellow Emperor often used wild animals, such as bears, tigers and leopards to defend himself. After the third battle he gained victory, and he had then secured major parts of North-China. His kingdom was passed on through several generations, until The Great Yao received the throne."
