Having EPUB book for downloading?

[vitasam]

Hi, what about building also an EPUB version of the book, in addition to PDF, for downloading? For example I have now troubles with quarto under Linux Mint to build a EPUB book.

Hi @vitasam.

We can enable ePub.

I didn't think many people were using it, so I wondered why worry about it, cause we'd have to check and make sure it was building properly, etc. But if you are using it, then we can certainly enable it!

Hi, thank you!

ePub is much more e-reader friendly than pdf. I tested both on my Kindle - PDF is for PC and big tablets

Awesome, in that case, I will enable it. I've got something going on this weekend but will do this this week. I am also getting ready for another big push of new chapter updates, so stay tuned for that!

Thanks again for dropping a note 🙏 I love hearing from people engaging with the material.

If you have thoughts and feedback, please do let me know. I'm all ears for feedback, as this is a work in progress.

Hi, did you manage to enable EPUB rendering? I want to read it on my Kindle :)

[profvjreddi]

Hi @vitasam -- thanks for the ping. Yes! We fixed things to get the ePub version built after your request.

I just realized I never enabled it for public access, but I will push a new release tonight or early tomorrow. I will ping you afterward, and you'll be able to access/download the ePub.

Sounds good?

Hi Dave -- I will build a new ePub release and make it available by EOW. Hope that's OK?

Hey @profvjreddi did this happen? How would I access the epub version please?

[profvjreddi]

Hi @daveclarke - thanks so much for your patience 🙏 I literally just last night released the ePUB. It was a bit of a nightmare trying to get the build system to support it; I know it needs a few tweaks that I will continue to make in the coming weeks.

Please do let me know if you have any issues, and I will try to work on them. It is the start of the semester here, so things are getting busy! Thanks again for your patience.

Looks great thank you so much. Perfect timing, I just received the xiaoml kit.
