Generate EPUB Ebooks with ePub-Boilerplate
Productivity Sauce
If you plan to publish your next opus magnum as an EPUB ebook, you don't have to start from scratch. Instead, you can use ePub-Boilerplate. This bundle comes with a ready-made ebook template and a script that generates an EPUB file and validates it. Using ePub-Boilerplate is easy. Grab its latest version from the project's repository using the git clone git@github.com:javierarce/epub-boilerplate.git command. You'll find the ebook template in the book directory, and you can edit template files to your heart's content. Once you're done editing, use the ./publish book command to generate an ebook in the EPUB format. It's that simple.
While using ePub-Boilerplate requires some manual work, this approach has several advantages. You can use any text editor to work with the template, and you are not tied to a specific authoring tool. More importantly, the ePub-Boilerplate generates clean EPUB files without any cruft that other EPUB authoring tools tend to add during the conversion process.
