Abstract :
Technological developments and easy access to the internet have influenced reading habits, with digital novel platforms becoming popular as an alternative way of reading. However, novelists face obstacles in publishing their works, due to intense competition in the publishing industry. The solution used is to build a multiplatform application system as a forum for novelists to publish their work using the Laravel API. The development method used is Waterfall, which consists of five development stages. This application will provide features that facilitate interaction between novelists and readers, such as likes, comments, and uniquely there is a feature for listening to novels via voice for users who prefer listening rather than reading, with a text-to-speech system. Additionally, the app allows novelists to build a stronger fan base. This research aims to provide a practical and efficient platform for novelists to write, edit and publish their works online through the features provided in the application. System testing was carried out using the System Usability Scale (SUS) method, getting a score of 79.5, including in the Good category with a grade scale of B. The programming language used in developing this application is Flutter, which allows the creation of multiplatform applications with responsive and consistent performance across various devices.
