TIL thanks for commenting, I'll make a note to fix this.

  Yeah, understandable given that the "sample-epub-minimal" repo you were going off of effectively says "just zip it all up and you're good to go", which is incorrect. Not sure what the best remedy is there, maybe I'll open a pull request. [1] https://github.com/thansen0/sample-epub-minimal https://github.com/thansen0/sample-epub-minimal

  My crusty Python code implementing EPUB, with the conforming uncompressed mimetype file as first member in the archive: https://github.com/davidwtbuxton/ucflib/blob/e576fb97fc2a2ea8396fbcb294892d52897a2d28/ucf.py#L163 https://github.com/davidwtbuxton/ucflib/blob/e576fb97fc2a2ea...

    Robin Sloan has a good Ruby project that builds good-looking web pages alongside EPUB files: https://github.com/robinsloan/perfect-edition https://github.com/robinsloan/perfect-edition It was in porting that to Racket [1] that I learned about some of these EPUB standard details. But spoiler alert, both projects just shell out to `zip` to do the actual compression.
