- Add pill badge system for displaying file type and suffix tags
- Add "Remove from Recents" option to remove individual books
- Add "Clear All Recents" option to clear entire recents list
- Add clearThumbExistsCache() for cache invalidation
- Create BadgeConfig.h for customizable badge mappings
- Add extractBookTags() utility for parsing filename badges
- Add drawPillBadge() component for rendering badges
- Add /api/hash endpoint to compute and cache MD5 hashes on demand
- Extend /api/files response with md5 field for EPUBs (null if not cached)
- Compute and cache MD5 automatically after EPUB uploads
- Add flush() before close() in WebSocket and HTTP upload handlers
- New Md5Utils module using ESP32's mbedtls for chunked hash computation
The MD5 hashes enable the companion app to detect file changes without
downloading content. Hashes are cached in each book's .crosspoint cache
directory and invalidated when file size changes.
## Summary
When uploading or downloading an updated ebook from SD/WebUI/OPDS with
same the filename the `.crosspoint` cache is not cleared. This can lead
to issues with the Table of Contents and hangs when switching between
chapters.
I encountered this issue in two places:
- When I need to do further ePub cleaning using Calibre after I load an
ePub and find that some of its formatting should be cleaned up. When I
reprocess the same book and want to place it back in the same location I
need a way to invalidate the cache.
- When syncing RSS feed generated epubs. I generate news ePubs with
filenames like `news-outlet.epub` and so every day when I fetch new news
the crosspoint cache needs to be cleared to load that file.
This change offers the following features:
- On web uploads, if the file already exists, the cache for that file is
cleared
- On OPDS downloads, if the file already exists, the cache for that file
is cleared
- There's now an action for `Clear Cache` in the Settings page which can
clear the cache for all books

## Summary
Adds support for browsing and downloading books from a Calibre-web
server via OPDS.
How it works
1. Configure server URL in Settings → Calibre Web URL (e.g.,
https://myserver.com:port I use Cloudflare tunnel to make my server
accessible anywhere fwiw)
2. "Calibre Library" will now show on the the home screen
3. Browse the catalog - navigate through categories like "By Newest",
"By Author", "By Series", etc.
4. Download books - select a book and press Confirm to download the EPUB
to your device
Navigation
- Up/Down - Move through entries
- Confirm - Open folder or download book
- Back - Go to parent catalog, or exit to home if at root
- Navigation entries show with > prefix, books show title and author
- Button hints update dynamically ("Open" for folders, "Download" for
books)
Technical details
- Fetches OPDS catalog from {server_url}/opds
- Parses both navigation feeds (catalog links) and acquisition feeds
(downloadable books)
- Maintains navigation history stack for back navigation
- Handles absolute paths in OPDS links correctly (e.g.,
/books/opds/navcatalog/...)
- Downloads EPUBs directly to the SD card root
Note
The server URL should be typed to include https:// if the server
requires it - HTTP→HTTPS redirects may cause SSL errors on ESP32.
## Additional Context
* I also changed the home titles to use uppercase for each word and
added a setting to change the size of the side margins
