epub in javascript

To create a basic EPUB reader using JavaScript, you can use the epub.js library. Here's an example of using epub.js to load and display an EPUB file:

index.tsx
// Load EPUB file
var book = ePub("path/to/book.epub");

// Render the reader to an HTML element
book.renderTo("reader");

// Load the first chapter
var chapter = book.spine.get(0);
chapter.load().then(function (html) {
  // Display the chapter content
  $("#chapter").html(html);
});
285 chars
13 lines

In this example, we load the EPUB file using the ePub function from epub.js. We then render the book to a HTML element with the renderTo method. Finally, we load and display the first chapter using the load method of the corresponding book.spine item.

Note that epub.js has many more features and options for creating advanced EPUB readers, such as navigation controls, bookmarks, and annotations. You can find more information and examples on the epub.js website.
