## What it is
Reader (阅读3) server is a self-hosted, multi-user online ebook/novel reading service that works with the 阅读 Android app and web browsers. It aggregates content from user-supplied book sources and syncs reading progress across devices.

- sync reading progress between devices
- read web novels from custom book sources

## When to choose
- you want a self-hosted alternative to commercial reading apps
- you need multi-user reading with progress sync
