I have jellyfin all set up on a media server so this won't do much for me. That said, this is pretty slick looking and has a good use case. If I'd not been aiming to share with my long distance girlfriend I'd probably have opted for this kind of thing. Nice work op!
Do you know how to code? If so I would love on adding network share features. But I don't have a server and all setup to test it.
Unfortunately my coding is limited to a semester of python in college so i'm not much use there.
Ohhh. No worries. Thanks for the feedback. If I ever acquire the hardware to test I will add the features
My jellyfin server is literally just a raspberry Pi 5 with an external 5 terabyte HDD. The hardware isn't so bad price wise. If you do build something for and want more testing feel free to hit me up and I'll play with it
Honestly, I wouldn't try to develop this for network sharing. That would make it encroach a lot on the territory of dedicated server software like jellyfin which most likely has a lot more development power behind it.
Probably better to focus on your niche
I am building this mainly for my personal use. Plus most of dedicated software tries to pander to a large audience incuring bloat. Hence I am not adding networking features now. But I really love my software and if I set up over the network media servers I will update this to that. It's ultimately my code and as you can see by the lack of other people contributing and the software not being that massively popular I don't think anybody will mind.
