FAQs
- Why Go?
Well, Go is just very memory efficient. Yes, writing this in something like C would be even better, but that's a pain. My choice for Go was a cross-platform server that can be run even on embedded hardware for local access to your comic/manga collection.
- Is there a Web UI for this?
No. This is designed to be a very lightweight server and a UI would add a lot of bulk. However since this server just serves a basic OPDS feed, there should be plenty of clients available. Alas, the PSE support is kinda lacking. It seems like there just isn't much of a market for that.
- Does streaming use more bandwidth?
Not really. While CBZ files can be compressed, generally the bandwidth saved by compressing JPGs and non-lossless PNGs is pretty minimal. In fact, I don't compress my CBZ files at all. The few kilobytes it saves just isn't enough to justify the extra battery usage to decompress it on a mobile device.
