Sigil is the only ebook authoring program that created a fully-compliant epub format of my physical book. The learning curve was not too bad, bear in mind that I'm experienced and comfortable using HTML and was experienced in formatting, or attempting to format, epubs. The feature that checks code for errors is very useful. The UI is a bit dated looking but that doesn't affect your book layout, after all. The only thing that makes me pause is that it is not updated very frequently, but that is a minor drawback - it was actually last updated in December, 2020, and it seems to be actively maintained. If you are ok with dealing with a bit of HTML and understand how to structure your ebook, you'll find this a breeze to use. Thanks to the developers.
