## Description

Reader is a digital content reader and browser-based document viewer. It functions as a digital library manager and content aggregator that collects articles and documents from various online sources into a single interface.

The project utilizes a JSON-driven approach to organize and display hierarchies of digital documents. It incorporates a REST-based aggregation model to fetch reading materials and metadata from remote servers for a unified viewing experience.

The application provides client-side rendering for digital texts and manages personal collections through a digital library system. It includes mechanisms for tracking reading progress and maintaining user preferences via local state persistence.
