Books are so unique that it feels like they need a dedicated app, just like there is a native app for Goodreads on iOS and Android. Native apps could make it easy to quickly mark a book as \u201cfinished reading\u201d, or provide fun features like barcode scanning from the phone camera.</p>\n\n<p>You can make a pretty strong case that we already have <em>too many</em> official iOS apps: Micro.blog, Sunlit, and Wavelength. Books seems like a great third-party opportunity instead.</p>\n\n<p>I\u2019ve documented the <a href=\"https://help.micro.blog/t/json-api-books/545/2\">bookshelves API in the Help Center</a>. It can do most of what Micro.blog on the web does, with the notable exception of book search. If you are building a books app, you\u2019ll need to \u201cbring your own\u201d book search from Open Library, ISBNdb, Google Books, Amazon, or wherever.</p>\n\n<p>A theoretical app built on Micro.blog could let the user sign in with their Micro.blog account <a href=\"https://help.micro.blog/t/indieauth/99\">using IndieAuth</a>. Then the app could get the user\u2019s bookshelves, add new books, or post to their blog with a link to the book.</p>\n\n<p>Like most of Micro.blog, the API is based on JSON Feed. Lists of bookshelves and books are just JSON Feed with a little bit of extra data like <code>isbn</code> in a namespace field. When Micro.blog has the book cover, it\u2019s included in <code>image</code>.</p>\n\n<p>There have been some <a href=\"https://tomcritchlow.com/2020/04/15/library-json/\">interesting experiments with custom JSON formats</a> or even <a href=\"https://www.zylstra.org/blog/2021/05/federated-bookshelf-proof-of-concept/\">based on OPML</a>, but as I was reviewing these it seemed like an unusual departure for Micro.blog to not use JSON Feed.

Bridgy needs a link to your blog post for it to be able to match up tweet replies to that blog post.
