Flow is a free, open-source, browser-based ePub reader built with Next.js and React, installable as a progressive web app. It supports in-book search, highlighting and annotations, custom typography, themes, grid layout for reading multiple books, and optional cloud storage (Dropbox) with self-hosting via Docker.
Use cases
- read epub books in the browser
- self-host an epub reader
- highlight and annotate ebooks
- read epub offline as a pwa
- set a default epub reader app
- sync reading progress to cloud storage
- read multiple books side by side
When to choose
- you want a free, open-source ePub reader that works across platforms in a browser
