 # gameyfin
-A simple game library manager
+A simple game library manager.
 Name and functionality inspired by [Jellyfin](https://jellyfin.org/).
 ## Features
 * Automatically scans your game library folder
 * Load additional information about the games from IGDB
 * Display your library in a modern web frontend
 * Download games directly from your browser
 * Search and filter your game library
 * Offline-friendly (once the library has been scanned everything is cached locally)
 * Easy to host yourself thanks to native Docker support (alternatively it's only one .jar file to run on bare metal)
 * Light and dark theme
 ### 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.
