Show HN: Epub.rs – Library of Rust's Docs.rs pages converted to epubs

https://epub.rs
1•fetzdev•1h ago
I built a small service that turns docs.rs pages (and other documentation sites TBD) into clean, fully offline EPUB books.

I wanted an easy way to read Rust docs on an e-reader without losing structure or navigation.

I am aware of cargo offline docs... but it just doesn't quite hit the same, and does not view on my Kindle e-Reader. So, I built this to make sure I have my docs on-the-go when working on projects while traveling etc. My workflow can be a bit strange, but for some reason having documentation available on my paper kindle is great for offline coding.

I've spoken with the Rust team who run's https://docs.rs and this tool is approved by them and fully respects their rate limits.

Feedback welcome. Github repo will be up soon, as I've decided on MIT open source licensing for the code. Maybe this won't be as useful or interesting to others as it is to me... but if it ends up being a hit... there's many more features that can be added of course!

Thanks for checking out my project! Fully prepared for the criticism bomb incoming :P
