A while ago, I shared that BookLore went open source, and I’m excited to share that it’s come a long way since then! The app is now much more mature with lots of highly requested features that I’ve implemented.

Here’s a quick rundown of the recent updates:

New Features:

  • OPDS Support: You can now easily share and access your library using OPDS, making it even more flexible for managing your collection.
  • OIDC Authentication: I’ve integrated optional OpenID Connect (OIDC) authentication alongside the original JWT-based system, giving more authentication options. Watch the OIDC setup tutorial here.
  • Send Books via Email: You can now share books directly with others via email!
  • Multi-Book Upload: A much-requested feature is here - upload multiple books at once for a smoother experience.
  • Smaller but Useful Enhancements: I’ve added many smaller improvements that make managing and reading books even easier and more enjoyable.

What’s Next?

BookLore is continuously evolving! The development is ongoing, and I’d love your feedback as we build it further. Feel free to contribute — whether it’s a bug report, a feature suggestion, or a pull request!
