SelfPubKit – write, publish, monetize books on your own
Hi HN, I made a tool for self-publishing authors called SelfPubKit.com. The all-in-one editor allows you to write chapters, export them to epub, pdf. You can also publish product as a standalone website with direct payments set up with your Stripe account which means you get 100% of payments minus Stripe’s fee. The idea came about when I wanted to write a short guide myself. Anyhow, let me know what you think. I’ll share tech details in the comment below.
SelfPubKit – write, publish, monetize books on your own launched on November 23, 2023 with 13 votes, #1,360 of 4,332 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches.
In plain words
SelfPubKit is an all-in-one platform for self-publishing authors to write, edit, and distribute their work. Users can write chapters in the built-in editor, export content to EPUB and PDF formats, and publish their books as standalone websites with integrated Stripe payments. Authors retain all revenue except for Stripe's processing fees, giving them direct control over sales and payments.

- SPSelf-Published Book – “Data Science in Production”2020 · ▲172
Hi HN, Over the past 6 months I've been working on a technical book focused on helping aspiring data scientists to get hands-on experience with cloud computing environments using the Python ecosystem. The book is targeted at readers already familiar with libraries such as Pandas and scikit-learn that are looking to build out a portfolio of applied projects. To author the book, I used the Leanpub platform to provide drafts of the text as I completed each chapter. To typeset the book, I used the R bookdown package by Yihui Xie to translate my markdown into a PDF format. I also used Google docs…

SpeedVitals▲829Hi HN, I’m Kashish, one of the co-founders of SpeedVitals, a platform for testing & monitoring website performance with a major emphasis on Core Web Vitals. Until now, our platform has only focused on Synthetic/Lab testing, such as Lighthouse tests and TTFB tests. But now, we have developed a Real-User Monitoring platform that doubles up as a Web Analytics tool. One major feature we have that most RUM tools lack is Performance Audits. Just like Lighthouse audits work on Lab test data, our audits work across all the real-user visits and gives suggestions on what task to prioritize first.…
