When I was preparing my wife's books I used Sigil to tweak the xhtml files
from the epub exported from LibreOffice. One can produce  epub2 or epub3
versions from Sigil and was easy to use. We wanted to produce an epub to
the standard which could be read on apple books, the kobo and the kindle. I
had to adjust the xhtml files since none of them implemented the epub
standard exactly so I ended up preparing three different versions. However,
apple, kobo, and kindle documented where they differed from the standard so
it wasn't too onerous a job. The Kindle version was prepared from an epub
using kindle previewer.
Best wishes
Keith McKay
