HomeGallery
HomeGallery provides self-hosted photo and video browsing through a web gallery while retaining the user’s existing folders.
About HomeGallery
HomeGallery is a self-hosted web gallery for browsing photos and videos. It shows files in place, so the user's existing folder structure is kept, and it adds a gallery view on top of those folders. The homepage describes Docker, Linux, Mac, Windows and PWA as supported platforms.
The site describes several search and organization tools. These include similar image search, which the homepage says can find related images such as sunsets, food or buildings without manual tagging. It also offers single and multi-image tagging, face recognition based on similar faces, reverse geolocation of addresses from GPS-tagged photos, a map view of browsing history, and configurable search expressions. The homepage does not say how accurate these tools are.
