Customizing the Reader

The ability to customize the reader and user experience is at the core of our SDK mission. While our off-the-shelf Kitaboo reader gives the best in class UI/UX, we understand that you may want to change the look or use it in an entirely different way. Lets walk through some of the customized readers built using our SDK to give you an idea about the various possibilities.

Kids reader

Kids reader has a completely different UI/UX to make it more engaging for the kids to use. Since the SDK handles the core rendering and the API interfaces to trigger the functionalities don't change the effort to customize the reader was minimal and restricted to UI changes alone.

Reader embedded within an IFrame

This is another interesting use case where the reader is part of a webpage maintained by our customer. So instead of the reader opening into another tab or same tab but utilizing all the available real estate, its embedded within an predefined height and width.
