Calibre-web actually implements the Kobo sync protocol to some extent. I don't know how well it works lately, I briefly tried it, but its implementation didn't really suit my reading style.

 

Kobo's have a browser. It's experimental, and pretty awful to use in practice. If you don't mind plugging in via USB, Kobo devices have extremely good support in Calibre.

 

Although it's been a since I last worked on it, Kobo-UNCaGED is an implementation of the "Calibre Companion" wireless protocol, which should still work.

 

I actually have a half finished OPDS client I've been working on, although I've been busy with other stuff the past couple of months, so no guarantee I'll ever finish it.

 

I hope this helps!

 

 

yeah, my calibre is not really accessible via USB (windows server hyperv with calibre on a Linux vm).  So I need to either email it, use a browser or an opds client.   Though yes it does have s Kobe sync, but I don’t know what that is.

I just bought and received a Kobo Nia for my 10yo today. Also using calibre without USB access (docker). If you setup Kobo sync, it should give you an api string, then just modify the Kobo device config file with this and it will sync to you local cailbre library over wifi.
