Show HN: Simple Photo Gallery – open-source CLI to create static photo galleries
github.comHey HN! I built this free and open-source tool out of frustration with how difficult it is to share vacation photos and pictures of our kids with friends and family. There is no tool that lets me create a shareable web gallery with a great mobile experience, the ability to add detailed descriptions, and no login required.
The CLI tool scans a folder and all sub-folders for photos and videos, generates thumbnails optimized for speed and finally creates a static web site to showcase the photos and tell their story. As the gallery is static, you can easily self-host it on any static hosting provider like Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages or GitHub Pages. Everything is written in TypeScript that the site is generated with Astro.
Happy about any feedback or questions :)
