Description
I with different device formats and screen sizes, various aspect ratios, etc. Having a format that's more dynamic and catered towards reflowability is really important. PDFs are nice, but they always have a fixed size and don't work well on many devices people use now.
It would be a good step for a modern latex alternative to take a step forward to supporting it. I always hate it that you have to have 2 workflows. 1 for PDF with latex and then a separate one with whatever tool you prefer for epub and it would be amazing to combine it.
It was previosly mentioned in the comments to the issue about HTML output but I think EPUB itself is important enough to make a separate issue for since there's still quite a bit on top of just HTML.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing the HTML-output discussion in issue #114 and determine the scope of EPUB support beyond HTML. Done should be defined as a clear, testable EPUB output workflow that supports reflowable content across device sizes.
