About the Book

  • Do you wish to create and publish an e-book?
  • Do you use a Linux desktop?
  • Are you willing to learn basic reStructuredText?

If you answered yes to all those questions, then this book is for you!

In 5 steps, I will walk you through the process of creating and building an EPUB 3 format e-book, which you can publish on 15+ digital book stores, including Leanpub, Draft2Digital (Apple Books, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, and more), and Amazon KDP.

To save you time, this book includes “Leanbook” — a quick-start Sphinx project template as a downloadable zip file.

With Leanbook, you get 3 font themes, live-preview, sample copyright page and a glossary, a book cover template, and more.

If you are new to reStructuredText, you can consult the sample chapters in Leanbook. For a step-by-step approach, you can get my beginner’s guide: “reStructuredText for Sphinx”.
