Hey everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹

This may be a bit niche, but I built a small tool called KoInsight โ€” a self-hosted web dashboard that lets you visualize your reading statistics from KoReader.

KoReader tracks a ton of useful reading data (pages read, time spent, sessions, etc.), that's all stored in a .sqlite file and shown via the built-in UI. KoInsight improves that by giving you a web UI where you can easily see your reading habits and progress over time and across devices.

๐Ÿ”ง Features

  • ๐Ÿ“ˆ Interactive dashboard with charts and insights
  • ๐Ÿ”„ KoReader plugin for syncing reading stats
  • ๐Ÿ“ค Manual .sqlite upload supported
  • โ™ป๏ธ Act as a KoReader (kosync) sync server
  • ๐Ÿ  Fully self-hostable (Docker image available)

๐Ÿš€ Get started

  • GitHub repo:
  • Docker support for easy deployment
  • Includes a simple KoReader plugin for one-click sync

๐Ÿ’ก Why I built this?

Iโ€™ve been using KoReader recently and wanted a better way to see all the cool stats it collects. I figured others might be interested too, especially if you're into self-hosted tools. It's still in a pretty early stage, but I think it's at a point where it should be usable :)

Would love feedback if you try it out โ€” ideas, issues, feature requests all welcome!

Cheers! โœŒ๏ธ
