Introducing SEED.html

[seed_html]

Hi everyone,

As someone who's spent a lot of time thinking about and creating EPUBs, I know how tricky it can be to get the formatting just right and to ensure the final file is valid. I'm a software developer from Naarm/Melbourne, and I've created a new browser app that might make this process a lot easier for you.

The app is called SEED.html, and it's designed to help you quickly author clean, valid EPUB 3 books from simple Markdown or plain text files. It handles a lot of the technical grunt work for you, like generating a valid OPF file, creating a table of contents, and ensuring the final package is as close to valid as possible.

SEED.html has a minimalist, opinionated design that focuses on simplicity and speed. It's still very new and under active development, so I'm keen to get feedback from users to help shape its future.

You can use it on my web site, or download it to your own computer. It runs on all operating systems including iOS and Android though it's easier to use on a desktop.

I'd love for you to try it out and let me know what you think. Your feedback on the features, user experience, and any bugs you find would be incredibly helpful.

Thanks for your time,
Stewart
