Summary

Readers can only open books from the live library. Public Markdown no longer lists Drive or publisher download links.

Changes

  • README language badges/CTAs → freecodebooks.vercel.app
  • All docs/*.md language guides: titles only + site CTA (≈670 book URLs removed)
  • docs/index, getting-started, FAQ updated for website-only reading
  • CONTRIBUTING / PR template / broken-link issue: URLs live only in web/data/books.json
  • import:docs preserves existing driveUrl when docs have titles only

Type of change

  • Documentation / structure improvement
  • Library app (web/) change (import script)

Notes

web/data/books.json still holds Drive URLs for the app backend (star-gated reads). They are no longer exposed as a browsable list in README/docs/.

Open in Web Open in Cursor 

Route language badges and CTAs to freecodebooks.vercel.app so
readers open books on the website instead of docs/ Markdown guides.

Strip Drive and publisher URLs from all language Markdown guides
so titles point readers to freecodebooks.vercel.app. Keep URLs only
in web/data/books.json for the library app. Update import:docs to
preserve existing driveUrl when docs list titles only.
