       Unless I'm missing something, in 2023 it's no longer possible to programmatically generate a MOBI file out of any other existing format (epub / HTML / PDF).All solutions I found on #npm are thin wrappers around Amazon's kindlegen software last updated in 2010s.And for some reason Amazon no longer offers kindlegen for download.Another way of achieving that is using Calibre but that's not something I can do with my GUI-less CI/CD pipeline.Sheesh.#javascript #programming

       @lukem If you can't use Calibre, I wouldn't bother with MOBI as Kindles now support EPUB.

       There's one project that seems to have MOBI generation on its todo list but I guess it's too early to ask.https://github.com/worlduniting/bookpub

       Whatever. Closing as wontfix. I won't bother with proprietary formats I can't build without resorting to magic.

       @rdrozd yeah, I gave up. Was fun to research but not much value was lost.
