+/**
+ * BornToBeNovel (borntobenovel.com) LNReader plugin
+ *
+ * A custom server-rendered site (not a known theme):
+ *
+ * - Catalog:      `/library/` lists every novel as an `a.novel-card` with
+ *                 `data-genre`, `data-status` and `data-search-text`; the
+ *                 site filters and searches that one page client-side.
+ * - Ordering:     `/static/sliders.json` holds the site's `popular` and
+ *                 `recent` (latest updates) slugs, used to order the catalog.
+ * - Novel page:   `/novel/<slug>/` — title, genre tags, status tag and
+ *                 description are in the markup; the chapter list is the
+ *                 inline `window.chapters = {...}` object
+ *                 (`{ "<n>": { url, is_free, date } }`).
+ * - Chapter page: `/novel/<slug>/chapters/ch-<n>` — the text is a base64
+ *                 string in `const contentData` that the page renders as a
+ *                 light markdown (`**bold**`, `*italic*`, `* * *` rules).
+ *                 Premium chapters carry a paywall notice instead.
