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.
