# Rails Guides on the Kindle
## Synopsis
1. Obtain `kindlegen` from the link below and put the binary in your path
2. Run `KINDLE=1 rake generate_guides` to generate the guides and compile the `.mobi` file
3. Copy `output/kindle/rails_guides.mobi` to your Kindle

## TODO
### Post release
* Integrate generated Kindle document into published HTML guides
* Tweak heading styles (most docs use h3/h4/h5, which end up being smaller than the text under it)
* Tweak table styles (smaller text? Many of the tables are unusable on a Kindle in portrait mode)
* Have the HTML/XML TOC 'drill down' into the TOCs of the individual guides
* `.epub` generation.
