thumbsup

Turn any folder with photos & videos into a web gallery.

thumbnails & multiple resolutions for fast previews
mobile friendly website with customisable themes
only rebuilds changed files: it's fast!
uses relative paths so you can deploy the pages anywhere
works great with Amazon S3 for static hosting

Quick start

Simply point thumbsup to a folder with photos & videos. All nested folders become separate albums.

npm install -g thumbsup
thumbsup --input ./media --output ./website

There are many more command line arguments to customise the output. See the website for the full documentation: https://thumbsup.github.io.
