## What it is
A set of shell scripts that sync ebooks from cloud services like Dropbox, Google Drive, Nextcloud, pCloud, Box, and Yandex Disk onto Kobo e-readers. It installs via a KoboRoot.tgz package and is configured with a simple links file on the device.

## Use cases
- sync ebooks from dropbox to my kobo reader
- download books from google drive onto kobo automatically
- use nextcloud to sync books to an e-reader
- get cloud library files onto kobo without calibre
- sync a shared cloud folder of books to my kobo

## When to choose
- you own a Kobo e-reader and store books in a supported cloud service
- you want automatic cloud-to-device book sync without manual copying
- you self-host Nextcloud and want it as your book source

## When to avoid
- you use a non-Kobo e-reader
- you need two-way sync or deletion propagation beyond the REMOVE_DELETED option
- your books are spread across many nested subdirectories
