Markdown to ePub Utility
========================

[](#markdown-to-epub-utility)

`md2epub` is a PHP script that converts a directory of markdown documents (`*.md`) and other resources to an electronic book compatible with the ePub 2.0.1 standard.

The instruction to compile the ebook must be entered in the `book.json` file.

The Markdown parser library is [Michel Fortin's PHP Markdown Extra](http://michelf.ca/projects/php-markdown/extra/).

The template parser library is [RainTPL](http://www.raintpl.com).

More info on PHPMaster's article [Building ePub with PHP and Markdown](http://phpmaster.com/building-epub-with-php-and-markdown/).
