Alexandria is an open-source application for downloading and converting EBooks.
Features:
* Search for your favorite titles and download them
* Can't find your favorite book in the right format? No problem, builtin EBook
converter
Download sources:
Alexandria uses the following download sources:
* Libgen (http://libgen.is/) which is considered non-free for being a shadow library
Ebook conversion sources:
* Alexandria API (https://alexandria.up.railway.app) which is a proprietary custom-made source
I will consider open-sourcing the Alexandria API once its mature enough.
Source Code:
The source code for this project is available on GitHub at
