reader 3

We have hosted the application reader 3 in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about reader 3:

This project is a minimalist, self-hosted EPUB reader designed to help users browse and read EPUB books one chapter at a time through a lightweight local server, making it especially easy to extract or work with chapters in external tools like large language models. It was created primarily as a simple demonstration of how to combine local book reading with LLM workflows without heavy dependencies or complicated setup, and it runs with just a small Python script and a basic HTTP server. The interface focuses on clarity and ease of use, offering straightforward navigation of book chapters rather than full-featured e-reading capabilities. While it lacks advanced features like built-in annotations or rich media support, its simplicity is intentional, enabling users to quickly load EPUBs, view them in a browser, and even repurpose text for downstream tasks.

Features:

• Self-hosted EPUB reading in the browser
• Chapter-by-chapter presentation for easy navigation
• Simple Python implementation with minimal dependencies
• Facilitates copy-paste workflows with external tools
• Lightweight and easy to run locally
• Designed for integration with LLM workflows

Programming Language: Python.
