For a better understanding of the following explanation of what an EPUB<br />
is and how to create one, we suggest downloading a working example of<br />
a rudimentary EPUB, which can be found on Toolkit project’s GitHub page<br />

Structure of an EPUB package<br />
Decompressing an EPUB file will reveal its internal folder (or directory) structure.<br />
Examining this structure will help us understand how an EPUB is put together.<br />
As explained above, the EPUB is a compressed ZIP archive. Start by decompressing<br />
or ‘unzipping’ the EPUB file using the built-in archive utility of your computer<br />
operating system, or archiving/compression software such as The Unarchiver<br />
(Mac), WinZip (Windows), etc. The unzipped contents should look like this:<br />
