Paginis is a flipbook viewer that turns your PDFs into interactive, flip-through books. You can load a PDF from a URL or upload a local file—all while pairing it with a YouTube playlist for a more dynamic experience.
What Makes It Great? I made this as a side project because I read a lot, and the typical PDF viewer always felt a bit dry. With Paginis, you can add, update, or delete quotes and notes, use the bookmark feature to easily navigate chapters and sections, and enjoy a big page preview to get a quick overview of the content. It’s all about making reading more flexible and engaging.
Libraries & Tools: PDF.js, Three.js, DFlip, JQuery_DFlip, CSS
Source Code : Paginis
I don’t think you’re supposed to view someone else’s paginis without permission.
Lol, I guess so …
It means ‘Pages’ in Classic Latin
Super Cool! Does it support other formats like epub, cbz etc?
Glad you like it. For the current time only PDF, because epub, cbz are not supported in dflip library, and they tend to have more work to render them. Epub is a favorite file extension for me, so I will try to add this into the project when I have time.
Would love to have an implementation of this in a virtual reality environment but for now, I prefer the actual look of PDF as a long strip of pages.
Yes it’s would be much cooler, I have a friend working on something like this, but he said it’s in it early development.
As the actual look of long stripes of pages is good, but as I said it has a bit dry look and not very engaging, when you read a lot, basic PDF viewer kills that joy. Anyway maybe I am wrong.
I have been moving to epub for reading books, my app of choice is Librera. It has many customization options.
You might mention the library license of the underlying library, it’s strictly non commercial meaning yours is too.
Seems to be a wrapper around this: https://github.com/dearhive/dearflip-js-flipbook
Yup, as already mentioned in the libraries and tools.
How do I view a book with the tilted perspective in your screenshot? It’s only showing flat pages for me.
Hold you mouse and click the right button to tilt it; as much to 180 degrees flat…
