An HTML5 flipbook is an interactive, web-based digital publication that mimics the experience of reading a physical book, featuring animated page-turning effects. Built using HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, these flipbooks work across all modern browsers and mobile devices without needing plugins, unlike obsolete Flash-based, making them ideal for digital catalogs, magazines, and brochures.
