reMarkable ePub

What is rePub?
'rePub' is a Chrome extension that enriches the reading experience on your reMarkable device by allowing you to read web articles, with the added feature of including images and iframes that make articles more 'readable'. It offers more options for epub generation and upload. Unlike the official 'Read on reMarkable' extension, rePub is open source and doesn’t include a PDF printer adapter.

Summary

Read web articles on your reMarkable with a single click.

There are a few notable differences between this and the "official" Read on reMarkable extension.

  1. This extension has the ability to include images and iframes in the summarized articles, making certain articles significantly more "readable".
  2. It provides more options for epub generation and upload, including a fix for 'pre' tags so they're rendered in fixed-width font.
  3. It is open source, so if things don't work well, they can be changed.
  4. It doesn't come with a PDF printer adapter, so if you want to print PDFs to your remarkable, you should still keep the "Read on reMarkable" extension.

What a remarkable (pun intended) extension! I don't own a Remarkable, but I do use e-ink to read everything, and I've discovered that aside from its intended purpose, it is hands down the best web-to-epub extension, with the cleanest formatting and no obnoxious ads or logos. THANKYOU developer.
