Highlights.Email [1] - a service to email yourself book highlights from your Kobo E-Reader!

Exporting book highlights from a Kobo was slow and inconvenient; you’d need to connect the device to your computer via USB and run a script, or upload the onboard sqlite database to a website to extract book highlights. With Highlights.Email, you tap a button on-device and in a few seconds have a nicely formatted email with all your book highlights!

So, I’m just scratching my own itch mainly while learning how to build and launch something to the world. There’s two parts to this service: Rust program that runs on-device and a SveltKit app (w/ a Supabase backend) for auth and sending emails.
