Reactjs docs as ebook (epub / Kindle)

README.md

This is how you can conver the react docs to a .ePub / Kindle (.mobi) file to read in an eReader (or eReader app):

• Make sure you have Pandoc available (on a Mac, it can be installed by brew install pandoc via Homebrew)
• Checkout or download master from the React docs repo [https://github.com/reactjs/reactjs.org]
• go to content/docs
• run the following commands in a shell (builds one markdown in order of navigation):

echo '' > ALL.md
for i in $(cat nav.yml | grep 'id:' | awk -F:  '{print$2}')
do
cat "$i.md" >> ALL.md 
done

• convert to an epub via pandoc ALL.md -o ALL.epub
• Open All.epub in Calibre
• edit metadata (and poss. convert to MOBI via Conversion)

thanks @sebastianrothbucher. I used this script! Here's the output if helpful to anyone: Kindle format.

@sebastianrothbucher, tks for the script, but i got these errors:

Thanks a lot for the script. I am posting the output in epub format here. Download Docs (epub)

Posting the epub output for Aug 29th 2021 here:

I just did
pandoc *.md > all.html
and then changed the TOC in Calibre

git clone git@github.com:reactjs/react.dev.git
cd react.dev/src/content/learn
pandoc *.md -o learn.epub
cd ../reference/react
pandoc *.md -o reference.epub

The markdown files can probably be combined into one epub, but I wanted to have them separate for my use case. I do get some errors, but seems like it might just be broken images... assuming the epub still works, I don't mind broken images for my use case.
