Epub3 is the actual ebook format. It consists of xhtml, images, stylesheets and toc (table of contents). The ebook is just a folder with all the above files zipped to a .epub file.
To create such an epub archieve you have to create a new project using the NoCodeDesigner and choose book as one of the options. Then all necesarry file and folders will be created for you.
If you already have created a project without choosing the book option you can do the following. Find the project folder on your harddrive. Add the folder parts inside this folder and add the file book.sml into the root folder of the project.
In the parts folder add a file with the name home.sml. This will be your first page. Add markdown content like
# Title
Lorem ipsum dolor
The content of the book.sml will look as follows.
