How should I use the MOBI manifest endpoint?

Fetch manifest JSON to pin fixture names, sizes, hashes, and MIME expectations in automated tests.

Why does this format have a category-specific hub?

A category-specific hub keeps assumptions aligned with practical workflows and related format alternatives.

MOBI Format Hub

MOBI (.mobi) is a legacy Amazon e-book format, commonly used on Kindle devices. It wraps XHTML content, images, and metadata in a proprietary container. Use sample .mobi files to verify Kindle-specific rendering, navigation behavior, and format conversion accuracy.

Implementation Notes

Keep implementation notes explicit.

Use the manifest endpoint for deterministic fixture selection in CI, then validate MIME/type detection against actual parser output.

If this format appears in multiple categories, prefer category-specific hub pages to keep test assumptions aligned with real usage.
