Convert JSON Format to EPUB in Android Applications
Parse JSON to EPUB within Android applications without using Microsoft® Word
Why to Convert JSON to EPUB?
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format that is used to store and exchange data. It is a text-based format that is easy for humans to read and write, and easy for machines to parse and generate. On the other hand, EPUB (Electronic Publication) is a free and open e-book standard by the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF). It is designed for reflowable content, meaning that the text display can be optimized for the particular display device used by the reader of the e-book.
Converting JSON to EPUB is beneficial for Android applications as it allows them to store and exchange data in a format that is optimized for the particular display device used by the reader. This helps to improve the user experience and make the application more efficient.
