You can, but getting the reader to pick up a new pdf involves

- Setting up a bit of metadata

- Restarting the system service

it's not quite as simple as `scp file remarkable:/folder`

For me it's much easier to drop files to reMarkable using RCU [0], works over wifi, too.

i don't haven the device but the above sounds like a 10 line shell script to me. slap files in a local directory, execute script, see screen flash on device, items loaded.
That sounds about right in terms of complexity.

Maybe 20, the metadata format is a bit verbose.

Screen more than flashes, it exits to the entry screen, navigation state isn't saved.
