Please Donate for Thorium Reader
The application is 100% free for its users, but its development is costly for a non-profit development laboratory. We believe that the companies which deploy Thorium Reader and the publishers which want a real alternative to proprietary solutions should help developing and maintaining this application.
You can help us financially, as a “one-shot”, by offering 1000 € to EDRLab for the development of the next features.
Why developing Thorium Reader?
Until now there was no modern EPUB 3 compliant reading application usable on Windows, OSX and Linux, properly accessible for print disabled people, with a good support for the LCP DRM and capable of browsing OPDS catalogs.
EDRLab decided to build such an application and release it for free, in order to provide users a great way to enjoy on a large screen EPUB publications, comics / manga / bandes dessinées, audiobooks, LCP protected PDF documents.
Print disabled people now benefit from an EPUB 3 reading app which supports screen readers like Jaws and NVDA on Windows, Voice Over on Mac.
Technology
Thorium Reader is based on the set of open-source chrome-less modules, a toolkit named Readium Desktop. Thorium Reader and Readium Desktop both rely on Electron.js, node.js and typescript, which are efficient cross-platform technologies. Thorium is also using React components based on HTML 5/CSS 3.
