Evening all,

I'm wanting to know if it's possible to run a server which can host ebooks that a user can view and then download very much in the same way that Calibre2opds allowed you to do before Dropbox changed their terms and conditions and stopped allowing you to be able to view the index.html file via your ereader.

I have a large family who all have Kindle's and so it was requested that I host this and make new books available and they be able to view a page like previously used to happen and they be able to click download and receive their book.

Is this still possible in 2019 and if so how would I go about it.

I have a couple of VPS's if that's the route that it will need to go down.

Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.

Metrix
