rePub Extension

Read web articles on your reMarkable with a single click.

⚠️ reMarkable has changed their API, and until the new scheme is figured out this extension can't modify the formatting of the epubs uploaded to the reMarkable cloud.

There are a few notable differences between this and the \"official\" Read on reMarkable extension.
1. This extension has the ability to include images and iframes in the summarized articles, making certain articles significantly more \"readable\".
2. It provides more options for epub generation, including a fix for 'pre' tags so they're rendered in fixed-width font.
3. It is open source, so if things don't work well, they can be changed.
4. It doesn't come with a PDF printer adapter, so if you want to print PDFs to your remarkable, you should still keep the \"Read on reMarkable\" extension.

Huang Wei (ID: 000000b02c914c76) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/06/2023 This is truly remarkable! A heartfelt thank you to the author for creating this incredible tool. I had been struggling with the official extension, which frustratingly lacked support for images. My only choice was to send PDFs, which we all know isn't an ideal solution. But now, with just a single click, I can immerse myself in my reading with flawless formatting. I can't express my gratitude enough. Thank you once again!

George Enciu (ID: 000000e6ba77d4c1) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/31/2023 Really nice and easy to use extension, I've been sending all my reading material to the reMarkable due to this. I recommend it

anonym synonym (ID: 000000f3cf386d2f) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/14/2023 I am pleased to have this extension to use it with my remarkable, though I am not sure if I am missing something as I can only download the webpage as epub and have to upload it to remarkable through their desktop app. The direct send option to remarkable is not available to me right now, not sure if it is just me or that functionality is non-existent. Also it would be nice to have the ability to change the fonts it it is possible in future updates.
