## Getting started
* [Download](https://github.com/rmcrackan/Libation/releases/latest)
* [Step-by-step walk-through](Documentation/GettingStarted.md)
## Audible audiobook manager
### The good
* Import library from audible, including cover art
* Download and remove DRM from all books
* Download accompanying PDFs
* Add tags to books for better organization
* Powerful advanced search built on the Lucene search engine
* Customizable saved filters for common searches
* Open source
* Supports most regions: US, UK, Canada, Germany, France, Australia, Japan, India, and Spain
* Fully supported in Windows, Mac, and Linux
### The bad
* Large file size
* Made by a programmer, not a designer so the goals are function rather than beauty. And it shows
### The ugly
* Documentation? Yer lookin' at it
* This is a single-developer personal passion project. Support, response, updates, enhancements, bug fixes etc are as my free time allows
* I have a full-time job, a life, and a finite attention span. Therefore a lot of time can potentially go by with no improvements of any kind
Disclaimer: I've made every good-faith effort to include nothing insecure, malicious, anti-privacy, or destructive. That said: use at your own risk.
I made this for myself and I want to share it with the great programming and audible/audiobook communities which have been so generous with their time and help.
