I serialized the world's longest epic poem into 146 readable episodes — The Mahabharata, free to read online

Been working on this for a while and finally launched it.

K.M. Ganguli translated the complete Mahabharata into English between 1883-1896. It's one of the greatest translation effort in history. But nobody actually reads it because the original text is a wall of archaic Victorian English.

I serialized the whole thing into 146 bite-sized episodes. Each one is a 15-20 minute read with:

- Tappable character names that show you who's who (because nobody can keep track of the fact that Dhananjaya, Partha, Gudakesha, Savyasachi, and Phalguna are all just Arjuna)

- "Previously on" recaps

- Reading progress tracking

- Dark mode

- Works great on mobile

It's completely free, no ads, no login. Built with Next.js, fully static — 315 pages generated at build time.

The Mahabharata is 10x longer than the Iliad and Odyssey combined. It deserves better than a PDF.

Open to any suggestions.
