Who Ebook Front-Matter Builder is for

People who need a small, purpose-built utility instead of a broad platform.
Users working with ebooks, front, matter who want the documented v1.0.0 behavior.
People who prefer an open-source release with visible limitations, source, and license terms.

Intended result

Generate EPUB XHTML, Kindle HTML, and print-ready Markdown front matter from one form.

This summary is reconciled from the current catalog and repository documentation.

Features in v1.0.0

Capabilities below come from the current project README and release documentation.

[](https://github.com/loganpendragonmultiverse/ebook-front-matter-builder/actions/workflows/ci.yml)

Generate EPUB XHTML, Kindle HTML, and print-ready Markdown front matter from one form. The command uses explicit UTF-8 JSON input and produces reviewable JSON or Markdown output.

Verified examples

Screenshots are shown only when the current README references a local source image. Otherwise, repository example files are linked directly.

Platforms and implementation

The public release claims only the cataloged platforms and technologies.

Supported platforms

Built with

Python

Quick start

The shortest documented path into the current release.

python -m pip install .
ebook-front-matter examples/sample.json
ebook-front-matter examples/sample.json --format json --output report.json

The example documents the v1 input shape. Existing report files are never overwritten. Source inputs are read-only except where the documented purpose explicitly creates a new output artifact.

Current limitations

These boundaries are part of the product and prevent the page from implying unverified capability.

The builder creates front-matter fragments, not a complete EPUB or print interior. Publishers remain responsible for identifiers, rights, validation, and house style.

Privacy and licensing

Review the actual data boundary before using a tool with sensitive inputs.

Privacy and safety

The tool runs locally and does not upload input or include telemetry. Python 3.10 or newer is supported on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

License and release

Ebook Front-Matter Builder is published under MIT. The current cataloged release is v1.0.0, published 2026-07-27.
