What Jellyfin is for video, Komga is for comics, manga, BDs, magazines, and eBooks: point it at folders of CBZ, CBR, CBT, PDF, and EPUB files and it becomes a proper library with cover art, embedded metadata import, and per-user reading progress. The responsive web reader handles multiple reading modes - left-to-right for western comics, right-to-left for manga, webtoon scrolling - while collections and read lists organize crossovers and story arcs, with ComicRack .cbl read list import for existing curation. Its openness is the real differentiator: OPDS v1.2 and v2.0 feeds serve virtually every reader app (Panels, Moon+ Reader, Mihon/Tachiyomi, KyBook), with OpenSearch and page-streaming extensions so mobile apps fetch pages on demand instead of whole archives. E-ink support is built in, not bolted on - Kobo devices sync directly against Komga instead of Kobo's servers, with two-way read progress, on-the-fly KEPUB conversion via Kepubify, and optional proxying so official Kobo purchases still work; KOReader sync covers everything else. Multi-user management brings per-library access control, age restrictions, and label restrictions for family setups. Housekeeping tools detect duplicate files and duplicate pages, and a REST API feeds a healthy ecosystem of community scripts. Runs from a single Docker container with embedded SQLite.

Curating digital comic archives, serialized manga, and electronic book libraries becomes effortless with Stump, a high-performance reading server that streams media collections over OPDS protocols directly to web browsers and e-reader hardware. Readers can organize extensive collections across CBZ, CBR, PDF, and EPUB formats, utilizing automated scanners that extract embedded ComicInfo XML and Calibre metadata tags. The built-in web reader renders high-resolution comic spreads, continuous vertical webtoon scrolls, and reflowable text with customizable color themes, font scaling, and reading direction toggles. Users can highlight passages, create persistent notes inside EPUB editions, and organize complex franchises into custom reading lists, oneshots, and smart filter collections. Bi-directional synchronization integrates with Kobo and KOReader hardware devices, maintaining page progression and bookmark states across handhelds and desktop sessions. Server administrators can configure multi-user access rules, enforce age restriction thresholds, and provision user-scoped API tokens for automated script pipelines and third-party companion tools. GraphQL and REST endpoints expose the entire catalog structure, allowing media collectors to integrate external metadata scrapers and trigger background library indexing tasks. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

BookLore centralizes personal electronic book, audiobook, and comic collections into an organized private media server equipped with automated metadata scrapers and e-reader synchronization. Users can drop EPUB, PDF, CBZ, and MOBI files into a watched BookDrop directory to trigger automated format parsing, background cover retrieval, and staged queue imports. Integrated metadata scrapers query Google Books, Open Library, Goodreads, and Amazon to automatically fill synopsis summaries, author records, publishing dates, and review scores. Dynamic Magic Shelves categorize volumes through custom rule-based filters, author collections, and full-text search indexes across your complete literature catalog. The browser-based reader renders documents with adjustable typography, night modes, audio playback controls, text annotations, and persistent bookmarking. Hardware e-readers and mobile devices connect through native Kobo Store emulation APIs, bidirectional KOReader progress synchronization, and OPDS catalog feeds. Multi-tenant permissions provide each household member with private reading statistics, personalized shelves, email book delivery, and direct send-to-Kindle dispatch. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GNU AGPLv3 licensed.

Manga, comics, ebooks, and light novels get a streaming-service-style home in Kavita - a fast, cross-platform reading server for the DRM-free collection you share with family and friends. It natively serves CBZ, CBR, CB7, ZIP/RAR/7z archives, raw images, EPUB, and PDF, with hand-crafted web readers per format: webtoon scrolling, single and dual-page spreads with advanced caching for the comic reader, and a book reader with adjustable fonts, spacing, margins, color themes, and column modes. Reading progress tracks per user, so everyone resumes exactly where they stopped on any device. Metadata parses from filenames, ComicInfo.xml, and EPUB fields, feeding index-backed search, smart filters, collections, reading lists with CBL import, and Want to Read queues. Role-based user management covers age restrictions, per-library access, and OIDC authentication. An OPDS feed connects third-party clients - Panels on iOS, Librera on Android, KOReader on e-ink devices - and a comprehensive REST API supports custom integrations. EPUB annotation and highlight support, custom theming, and full localization round it out. Built with .NET and Angular, it handles 50,000+ file libraries without strain; optional Kavita+ adds AniList scrobbling, recommendations, and external metadata.
