## What it is
Calibre-Web Automated is a self-hosted, Docker-based fork of Calibre-Web that adds automation and extra features to create an all-in-one eBook library server. It combines Calibre-Web's lightweight modern UI with automated ebook conversion, import, and syncing for devices like Kindle and Kobo.

## Use cases
- self-host an ebook library with a web UI
- automatically convert ebooks to epub or kepub on import
- manage a calibre library without running the desktop app
- sync books to a kindle or kobo ereader
- replace containerized calibre with a lightweight web alternative
- auto-import new books dropped into a watch folder

## When to choose
- you want a resource-light, mobile-friendly web interface for your calibre library
- you run a home server and want ebook conversion and import fully automated
- you need kindle/kobo/kepub conversion and syncing built in
- you want OAuth/OIDC login and KOReader sync support

## When to avoid
- you need the full calibre desktop GUI with its plugin ecosystem and editing tools
- you don't use Docker and want a native desktop application
- you only need a simple static file server for PDFs without library management

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: self-hosted, workflow-automation, http-server, auth
