Prof S K Ramachandra Rao's books

I heard about Prof S K Ramachanra Rao’s books free for download via H S Raghav. When I visited the website, I saw that hundreds of books were made available through Google Drive links. Many of the titles were really interesting to me - esp around biographies, art, etc. However, they were not even linked, where I could click and read them.

I put some time together to make these books easily discoverable, and readble, and here it is - https://files.btbytes.com/profskr/index.html

What this interface does:

Search for titles in English and Kannada

• filter books by category, and language (kananda and english)
• Kannada book titles are shown in Kannada
• download the original PDFs directly

Read the books online one page at a time, with ability to see all the pages as thumbnails

See thumbnails of all pages of a book

The code for converting single PDFs into individual pages, creating web page for each book, including thumbnails support are all published in the footer of the page.

All the code was written using Google Gemini models, in Antigravity CLI
