reMarkable ePub
What is rePub?
"rePub" is a Chrome extension that enables you to read web articles on your reMarkable with a single click. It supports images and iframes for better readability, offers enhanced ePub generation options, and is open source for customization. While it can't modify formatting due to API changes, it remains a powerful tool for converting articles, and you can still use the official extension for PDF printing.

Extension summary

Read web articles on your reMarkable with a single click.

⚠️ reMarkable has changed their API, and until the new scheme is figured out this extension can't modify the formatting of the epubs uploaded to the reMarkable cloud.

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, 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.

Fonctionne bien mieux que l'extension officielle. Offre davantage d'options, notamment pour les images. C'est parfait !
