eBook Project
It’s just an idea at this point, but i’ve noticed very few good eBook reader/printer/managers. My idea of a good eBook tool is one whose output can be customized completely and easily, and it occured to me that certain web technologies could be used to remedy that in a very platform independent and requirement independent way. Using XML to contain only the data of the book, XSLT to take care of the presentation, CSS to take care of formatting, and XHTML to be used for the final output. This XHTML could be easily broken back down into its XML and rebuilt using a different XSLT/CSS and look completely different.
Since some browsers are capable of XSLT themselves, they would be the only requirement, on platforms where a browser doesn’t provide a complete solution, there are typically numerous other ways to implement XSLT, as it is a very widespread technology.
The whole point of edit0r is to make the creation and design of my eBook project easier.
