Re:Show HN: Kindle-send – CLI to send webpages and files to ... by nik5 on Monday September 05, 2022 @11:35PM (#32732509)
Hi, earlier I created it as a wrapper using calibre and percollate. It was not portable at all.

This weekend, re-wrote it in golang to use go-readability for converting HTML to readable content and then build epub from there.

Now, binary can be used directly without worrying about extra dependencies.

Name is kindle-send but it is just pushing epubs via email. So shouldn't be a problem if you're using a different reader that supports receiving ebooks via email.

Call it epub-send instead. It sounds like a universal enough tool to deserve a more universal name, not connected to a specific product :)
