Publicate

Publicate!

Publicate is a GTK4 + LibAdwaita application that aims to make it easy to create, edit, and publish Portable Publications (PPUBs).

It is still a work in progress, and also depends on some of my other home grown projects including [LibPpub]() for PPUB handling, [GtkCommonMark]() for displaying MarkDown, and [Invercargill]() for handling lists and sequences.

What works

• Creating a new PPUB.
• Opening an existing PPUB for editing.
• Adding existing files into a PPUB.
• Deleting files from a PPUB.
• Updating PPUB metadata.
• Editing markdown files within a PPUB
• Editing plain text files within a PPUB

What is still to come

• Templated creation of files that don't already exist in a PPUB.
• Editing PPVM (PPub Video Manifest) files.
• Guided creation of PPVM based PPUBs (PPUB files containing video).
• Updating the PPUB date metadata automatically on all saves (currently only updates when metadata is saved).
• Templates for selecting a publication licence and copyright messages.
• Guided link and image insertion in the markdown editor.
