#42Does this work with any real eink readers as a "store" and sync service? I checked it out but they only mention mobile apps, not devices

#43Looks neat. I would love for such a tool that also has full text search on the books. I tried searching for “JSON” which is indeed in one of the books in the library and it did not find that book.

#44UI with minimalism, open source and cross-platform (Win, Lin, Mac) -- what's not to like about it?! And a great name too. Kavita means poem or poetry in Sanskrit and pretty much all Indic languages. I'm sure others will point out the pros/cons vis-a-vis Calibre reader. But each serves a different niche. This one seems particularly geared towards comics. So cannot expect all the bells and whistles of Calibre.

#45I'd love to have something like this if I ever bought a https://onyxboox.com/boox_nova3color If it could download "to-read" books/manga onto local storage and then sync page numbers when you connect to wifi that would be amazing.
If you're talking more like how Plex does sync, I literally just tried that with a Progressive Web App last week, but it didn't pan out. There wasn't enough control with a PWA (which means I'm going to have to write something native-ish in the future).

We have download support and "To Read" might be a collection or a readlist, so you could just download those series onto your device of choice if you don't want to user our web reader. If you use the web reader, of course, progress is tracked for you.

This requires having a web reader (edit: or OPDS), so I'm not sure about that.

#48Earlier quoted context omitted.
That just means someone changed it because they are bullies. Let me change it back. :)
Are you the dev? The `img/hero/example.png` image is way too big, I watched it slowly load over the course of maybe 5 seconds.

#49"a rocket fueled self-hosted digital library" - what does it mean that it's rocket fueled...?

#50Looks nice, I've been rolling my own simple version of something similar because none of the existing solutions supported my main use case, which is to convert format on the fly for the target device (a la Plex) In case you need ideas for future features :)
Are you also providing the reading experience or sending the converted file raw to use in another program's reader?
