Made for the reader
Clear navigation, bookmarks, a calm interface and frequent illustrations in shorter texts make the material easier to read.
BokRobot
BokRobot is a hobby project that automatically collects legally available books and stories from the web and turns inconsistent source material into structured, readable books. The goal is to make the material as easy and accessible to read as possible, with a calm reading surface, clear navigation and careful modernization of difficult old language.
BokRobot focuses on open sources and material that can legally be used. Close-to-original, modernized, translated and compressed editions are distinguished clearly and linked to the original work.
From the library
These examples come directly from the fairy tales, children's books, full books and stories in the library.
Clear navigation, bookmarks, a calm interface and frequent illustrations in shorter texts make the material easier to read.
Automated collection, often called scraping, gathers material from open sources, mainly older works that can legally be used.
Sources are cleaned and rebuilt as a book model with title, author, chapters, reading pages, metadata, editions and source references.
Difficult older language can be updated carefully, and works can be translated without erasing their meaning, tone or character.
Long and demanding classics can be compressed into shorter editions while preserving the central story, coherence, tone and humanity.
BokRobot is under active development. More texts, pages and features will be translated, improved and expanded continuously as the project grows.

Quality throughout
The work does not stop when the text is collected. The material must be cleaned, structured, checked and presented well. Modernized, translated or compressed editions should remain credible versions of the original work.
