Keep track of your books

Livres

What is Livres?

Livres is a small web application to keep track of the books you have.

What it can do?

Livres act as a library: you can add books to it, search them, and keep track to whom you lend your books.

To add a book to the application you have 3 ways:

• By entering its ISBN code
• By taking a photo of the book ISBN
• By live scanning the ISBN code with a webcam (or your phone camera)

After that, the application will search for additional information about the book from its ISBN.

Currently, the application search additional information into 20 different providers
