I created this reader purely for my own enjoyment.
Feature-wise, I just wanted to read text, see images, and view footnotes—that’s enough for me. In terms of experience, I wanted auto-resume, theme and language switching, and keyboard shortcuts—nothing more.
There are many powerful EPUB readers out there. I just wanted something simple and clean, so I built one. And then I thought—why not share it with others who also love to read?
No ads, no restrictions, no popups. Just quiet, focused reading. And if you feel like buying me a coffee, that would make me happy ☕
I won’t make any promises like “one coffee equals the next version.” I’m just a beginner. This project isn’t that serious, and I don’t want to make it sound like a big deal.
Still, if you encounter any issues or have suggestions, feel free to leave a message in Issues. I’ll do my best to respond—As long as it keeps this reader simple and clean.
