Hi

Thanks for the awesome repo. I added a link to a tool I made called kindle2pdf which I use to be able to read Kindle books on my reMarkable. I hope you consider including it. Thanks!

The linked repository does not contain a license, so it's not clear what rights have been granted to the user. It also doesn't appear to be a project that is specific to the reMarkable.

I added the LICENSE. You are right that it isn't specific to reMarkable, but then it doesn't need to be as all it is doing is converting from Kindle to PDF. So up to you if you want to include it or not, but I think it is useful for people who want to read Kindle books on their reMarkable as I don't think there is any other way to do it right now. Either way, thanks for the consideration.

Most people use calibre for converting kindle books right now, which is also not a rM specific item, and not listed here.

Since this list is meant for projects specific to the rM, and not just something that may be useful to someone using a rM, I'm leaning towards not including it.

Whatever you think, I'm easy. Using calibre isn't as easy as it used to be with the new Kindles (I'm not even sure it is still possible) and, in any case, requires a Kindle device (so you might as well read the books on that) unless you manage to download some old version of the Kindle app.
