  2. JSZip unzips the EPUB container directly in your browser.
  3. The OPF package file is parsed to find the spine reading order.
  4. Text is stripped from each HTML chapter file in order.
  5. A preview of the extracted text appears below the controls.
  6. Click "Download .txt" to save the full plain-text file.
