SupernoteReader - a light, no frills ebook reader
Hey folks,
Got my Supernote Nomad a few days ago, and i feel i made the right choice as far as devices go.
While playing around with it, i noticed that for reading (simple, distraction-less reading), the Kindle app, seems very... well... Amazon, and wanted something clean, simple, light, similar to Apple Books from a few generations back (your book, your font, font size, theme and that's it).
So, being a developer, (yes, of course i used LLMs) i created SupernoteReader, a simple, elegant (i hope) ebook reader. Just pushed the first version up on GitHub, so it's completely open for everyone.
