What is "iBooks format"?
I just used Sigil to finish my first epub. I'm not going to sell this particular book via Amazon, iBooks, etc. I'm only going to sell it on my website.

However, I want to make it available to people both Kindle users and people Apple Books. (I think that covers about 99% of the epub readers out there, right?)

Anyway, I've found instructions for converting my epub to Kindle. But I'm confused about iBooks. Am I correct in saying that you don't have to convert an epub to an iBooks format?

I'm confused because I've seen instructions for converting some kind of file to an "iBook format." But if I create an epub with Sigil, then it's already in iBook format - right? I can certainly open my epub and preview it in my Apple Books program.

Thank you.
