[`v0.8.8`](https://redirect.github.com/Kareadita/Kavita/releases/tag/v0.8.8):
- Epub Reader Overhaul, an Annotation System and OIDC!

[Compare
Source](https://redirect.github.com/Kareadita/Kavita/compare/v0.8.7...v0.8.8)

This is a massive release that Amelia and I have been working on for the
past 3 months non-stop. If you recall from the last release notes, I
said I wanted to focus on Feature Requests and so we picked up a few of
the most popular requests: **OIDC** (170+ upvotes), **Custom fonts for
Epub reader** (25+ upvotes), and **Highlight/Annotation system** (40+
upvotes). This is a feature packed release, so buckle up.

##### Epub Reader Refresh

First off, let's start with the new Epub reader. When tackling
Annotations, we took the opportunity to refresh the UX and the
underlying codebase, since it has been 5 years from when I originally
wrote it. While tackling a new UI, I thought to also tackle some long
standing, hard to reproduce issues, like text bleeding. Text bleeding
ended up eating 3 weeks of pure madness as Amelia and I tried to fix (or
just reproduce reliably), until we opened a bug bounty and
[@&#8203;privatestefans](https://redirect.github.com/privatestefans)
fixed it. Even with all the pain, we brought some requested features
around bookmarking images in the reader as well.

##### Epub Fonts

This has been a constant ask from many users and we finally got it out.
From the font management screen, any user can download fonts to use
within their books. Either upload a font file or better, copy/paste a
Google Fonts url. Fonts can then be assigned to books via reading
profiles.

##### OIDC

This release introduces one of our most requested features to date:
OpenID Connect (OIDC/SSO) integration. Server admins can now configure
OIDC to work alongside or fully replace Kavita’s native authentication
system. The setup is designed to be straightforward to get it up and
running quickly, while still offering advanced configuration options for
those who need more control.

Admins can choose to enable automatic account creation, allowing users
to join the server without manual intervention. When active, newly
created accounts inherit the configured default roles and age
restrictions. For more fine-grained control, role syncing can be
enabled—bypassing defaults in favor of permissions defined by the
identity provider, so you can manage all user access centrally.

Read all about it on the
[wiki](https://wiki.kavitareader.com/guides/admin-settings/open-id-connect/).

##### The Annotation System

Users have been asking for the ability to highlight text and add notes
when they read and have expressed a strong need for a software in the
self-hosting community to tackle this need. Since the start of the epub
reader 5 years ago, I wanted this system (and even solved the
implementation), but never had time to tackle it.

The annotation system is currently implemented for the epub reader and
it will be for the foreseeable future. It offers a way to highlight any
passage of text and to write a comment about that with rich text (bold,
underline, lists, images, etc). You can see any annotation within the
reader to jump around, you can view from the series page or the new All
Annotations view (accessible from the user menu in the top right).

Annotations have an owner, a marker if there are spoilers in the
comment, and a highlight slot. There are a fixed 5 highlight slots with
predefined colors, but you can change them at any time. Since
annotations are bound to the slot number, you can change the color
system and all annotations will get that update.

Kavita also added some social aspects that are opt-in. You can opt-in to
share your reviews with users on the server (with some extra
restrictions on libraries and age ratings) and also opt-in to seeing
other users' annotations. If you do opt-in to viewing, you can also
upvote ones you agree with. Filtering and Sorting against these fields
are planned for v0.8.8, due to a dependency on a feature in .NET 10.

Lastly, Annotations can be exported (either everything or a filtered set
of Annotations) in JSON format. I took inspiration from other Obsidian
plugins. While I am not going to write an Obsidian importer myself, if
someone does, I'm open to working with you to get the best experience.

##### OPDS Love

OPDS has gotten a lot of polish and love from me this release. I had
originally dived in to finally polish the Koreader sync experience, but
caught swept up in polishing the experience, along with a few FRs from
users that I think has brought a lot of UX to Kavita's implementation.
First, pagination across the board. Not all apps support this
unfortunately, which is where our next item shines: **Continue From**.
This new item will be first and foremost if you have any reading
progress in the feed. It is a shortcut to avoiding having to scroll
hundreds of items. Kavita now also encoded progress icons into the
titles to make it easier (since clients are also very loose with
supporting metadata).

##### What's Next

This release was quite challenging with the epub reader overhaul, but
extremely satisfying polish and fix many outstanding issues. I can't
wait to hear the feedback on the new annotation system. I want to extend
a huge thanks again to our nightly testers and those that provided
feedback for the annotation system (and OIDC support).

Next release I want to continue with my original plan of tackling more
of Kavita+ and it's integration in Kavita, along with the backend
switching to [MangaBaka](https://mangabaka.dev?utm_source=kavita),
focusing on a new Progress system to allow for richer stats, and a few
more Feature Requests that didn't make it this release.
