All the information I could find about Kindle builds with asciidoctor-epub3 refer to kindlegen.

However, Amazon has now withdrawn this tool, redirecting to the Kindle previewer. This seems to be relatively recent, as even their own internal docs and info on the KDP community still refer to kindlegen.

Is there already a way to build for Kindle now that this tool is no longer provided, or should one still use the versions floating around the web on various more-or-less suspicious sites ?

Finding such information would also allow updating https://asciidoctor.org/docs/asciidoctor-epub3/#converter-workflow
