### Differences to other game library software
In the past I used [Grifter](https://github.com/terrybrash/grifter) to manage my game library, and I was (and still am) happy with it.
However, Grifter has some limitations that I could not work around, so I decided to develop my own app.
Grifter does not support auto-discovery of games in your library folder. Instead, you have to manually add all files and their corresponding IGDB-slugs to a config file.
Also, Grifter only supports to download one file per game. Since I also have games consisting of multiple files I was not able to download them from the browser with Grifter.
Gameyfin fixes both these limitations: It can scan your library for games and automatically match them on IGDB to load additional information.
It can also deal with games consisting of multiple files by packing them into a .zip folder in realtime if necessary.
