Score: 5.5/10 (Innovation: 4, Technical: 6, Documentation: 8, Utility: 4)

Kobodeck is a Go-based tool that syncs articles from a Readeck instance to Kobo e-readers using the stock Nickel firmware. It fetches articles as KEPUBs, marks them as read on Readeck, and syncs favorites back, filling a niche gap for users who prefer not to install alternative readers like KOReader. The project builds on an existing fork and includes thoughtful details like atomic file replacement and end-to-end testing in QEMU.

Target audience: Kobo e-reader owners who self-host Readeck
