Convert ePub to audio files
A way to generate .mp3 files from ePUB. I wanted to continue "reading" even after my eyes got tired or if I went away from the screen. For these cases, what I did was select a given text, and select "Speech". If you've used this before, you know it's fine for small sections, but not for big chunks of text. So, I challenged myself to create a project that would "text-to-speech" a given book. After some attempts, I came up with a good-enough initial version using Golang.

In plain words
Convert ePub to Audio Files is a tool that transforms ePUB books into MP3 audio files using text-to-speech technology. Built with Golang, it parses ePUB files into sections and uses macOS's native speech command to generate audio output. Designed for readers who want to listen to books while away from their screen or when their eyes are tired, it handles large texts better than standard system speech tools. The tool is basic but functional for converting multiple ePUB files.
