Richard R 5c24ea5763 docs(env): clarify env var ownership split for external compute worker mode 
Expand documentation and example env files to explicitly distinguish which
environment variables belong in the app/root `.env` versus the `compute/worker/.env*`
files when deploying in external worker mode. This clarifies routing/auth
settings versus worker runtime configuration, reducing misconfiguration risk.

📄🔊 OpenReader

OpenReader is an open source, self-host-friendly text-to-speech document reader built with Next.js for EPUB, PDF, TXT, MD, and DOCX with synchronized read-along playback.

Previously named OpenReader-WebUI.

Get started in the docs.

✨ Highlights

  • 🧱 Layout-aware PDF parsing with PP-DocLayoutV3 (ONNX) — structured block detection, cross-page stitching, and geometry-based highlighting for precise read-along sync.
  • ⏱️ Word-by-word highlighting via ONNX Whisper alignment through the compute worker control plane (NATS JetStream-backed).
  • ⚡ Segment-based read-along for EPUB, PDF, TXT, MD, and DOCX — sentence-aware TTS with cached audio segments, background preloading, and resumable playback.
  • 🎯 Multi-provider TTS — self-hosted OpenAI-compatible servers (Kokoro-FastAPI, KittenTTS-FastAPI, Orpheus-FastAPI) or cloud APIs (OpenAI, Replicate, DeepInfra).
  • 🎧 Audiobook export in m4b/mp3 with resumable chapter processing.
  • 🗂️ Flexible backend — embedded SeaweedFS or S3-compatible storage, SQLite or Postgres, server library import, and device sync.
  • 🐳 Self-host friendly — Docker (amd64/arm64), optional auth, and automatic startup migrations.
