ClyoCloud

Database-free personal cloud for organizing image and video libraries

About ClyoCloud

ClyoCloud is a personal cloud storage and media management application that organizes image and video libraries using tags, collections and sidecar JSON metadata instead of a database, keeping files fully portable. It streams video with range requests, generates previews with FFmpeg, creates public share links, and supports two-factor authentication plus Android clients. It suits individuals who want a private, lightweight media library on their own server.
