AngelReader: The E-book, Audio-book & Library Loader in One Application

Hi, friend! Welcome to the Github corner of the AngelReader project! This is an app that we created using Python 3.6 and it's still young and under continuous development.

The app is minimalist with an 82 kilobytes engine, in its current release, robustly running three mini-libraries of 345 megabytes of various e-books and audio-books through its powerful Library Selector.

By tweaking and adjustments of the source code the AngelReader app can be configured to load any number of e-books in combination with audio-books on any variety of subjects, arranging them nicely in their respective libraries.

Binary Files

The complete binary files for the Windows OS platform can now be downloaded from [the Sourceforge website] (https://sourceforge.net/projects/angelreader) for the awesome experience of the AngelReader app. This is the latest AngelReader version 1.4 release.

Earlier standalone library releases (just from last September, 2018), but without the AngelReader Library Selector, are also available from [the OSDN website] (https://osdn.net/projects/angel-reader-01). These earlier binary releases are also for the Windows OS platform.

The download files for the Linux distros will follow soon in future releases.

Features

Summarily, here are some of the main features of the AngelReader application:

  • customizable fonts and page color
  • reziable windows
  • user friendly menus
  • easy to understand functions
  • open source software
  • cross platforms
  • minimalist but powerful
  • can be personalized or tailor-made according to the wants of an individual, a company, a school to meet particular needs
