# BookOrbit BookOrbit is a self-hosted, open-source library and reading platform for ebooks, audiobooks, and comics. Think of it as your own private digital library: multi-format readers built into the browser, automated metadata management, reading analytics, and multi-user support with SSO. No subscription, your files on your hardware. The features that make it stand out in the self-hosted library space: - **Device sync** — native synchronization with Kobo e-readers and [[KOReader]], so reading progress follows you between devices. - **Private OPDS catalogs** — share your library with reading apps and family members over the standard catalog protocol. - **All formats in one place** — ebooks, audiobooks, AND comics, where most alternatives specialize in one. Deployment is [[Docker]]: a [[PostgreSQL]] container (pgvector image) plus the BookOrbit app container. ## References - GitHub: https://github.com/bookorbit/bookorbit - Install guide for Synology (Marius Hosting): https://mariushosting.com/how-to-install-bookorbit-on-your-synology-nas ## Related - [[Self-hosting]] - [[Docker]] - [[Synology NAS]] - [[Network Attached Storage (NAS)]] - [[Calibre OPDS (COPS)]]
