Howdy folks. I love that my old Paperwhite 1st Gen can still live on thanks to the great work done by the people of this forum.
Having an old unsupported Kindle, I was missing a way to get books onto it without using a USB cable, so I made https://github.com/rcambrj/kindle-book-fetcher
It's a simple script which fetches a web page, iterates over the links on that page, selects the ones which end in .epub, .mobi, .azw3; then downloads them if they don't already exist. Where does this web page exist? You need to serve it yourself or configure a hosting service, but a directory listing from nginx or Apache will suffice, then you just put your files in there and push "Fetch books".
Keen to hear what you think :)
