EPUB to web

EPUB as it exists today is not directly usable by a web browser. The web-friendly content files are inside a zip package, which also contains container and package files expressed in a custom XML vocabulary.
The goal of a browser-friendly format (henceforth EPUB-BFF) is to make it easier for web developers to display EPUB content by [1] allowing an unzipped (“exploded”) publication, and [2] by providing an alternative serialization of the information in container.xml and the package document(s).
