# Kitapi — Social Reading Platform

## About
Kitapi is a social reading platform for iOS, Android, and Web. Users can add unlimited books, interact with a community of readers, share quotes and reviews, and discover books via Literary DNA.

## What is Kitapi?
Kitapi (kitapi.social) is a social reading platform — think Goodreads meets Twitter for book lovers. It helps readers track their libraries, share quotes, write reviews, and connect with like-minded readers through a unique feature called Literary DNA.

## Core Features
- **Personal Library**: Track books you've read, are reading, or want to read. Take notes and set reading goals.
- **Reader Community**: Follow other readers, share opinions, and discover books through social interactions.
- **Literary DNA**: A unique reading profile that analyzes your taste and helps you find your "book twin" — someone who reads like you.
- **Quotes & Reviews**: Share your favorite passages and reviews with the community.
- **Badge System**: Earn badges like Founding Member, Star Reader, and Apex Reader as you grow your reading journey.
- **Kindred Matching**: Opt-in feature that matches you with readers who share similar literary tastes based on your library overlap.

## How Does Literary DNA Work?
Literary DNA is Kitapi's signature feature. It builds a personalized reading profile based on the genres, themes, and authors you gravitate toward. It then matches you with other readers who share similar literary tastes, helping you discover new books through people — not just algorithms.
