Hi all, I’m looking for a one-stop selfhosted eBook software that can do the following:

  • Easily import (or upload) files and scrape metadata
  • Sync library and progress with web reader, eReader and android app(s)
  • Support for graphic novels

Basically I’m looking for Audiobookshelf but for… books

Calibre Web Automated

  • Can’t sync progress with web

Kavita

  • Can’t upload files

Stumpapp any good? I heard you can upload files.

    Kavita. It started for comics and moved on to books. It supports OPDS, the standard by which readers like KOReader and Mihon connect to fetch books.

    I have tried so many, Calibre (not good for graphic novels), Komga (very dated in comparison to Kavita), and more, but for both graphic novels and books, it won’t be beat.

    @[email protected] if you like Komga, take a look at Kavita. I was happy with my switch.

        Yes, in supported apps / protocols. Koreader, for example, should have 2-way sync for eBooks, and Mihon has 2-way sync for Manga.

        +1 for kavita. It also has a nice webreader ui.
