Show HN: rgallery – an offline photo/video timeline built with Go and SQLite

1 point

I wanted a tool that could handle my messy archive of decades of phone photos as well as a curated photography portfolio, all in one timeline. Some apps exist (open source and commercial), but none did exactly what I wanted. So I built my own.

Features include:

- Timeline view of your entire library with EXIF (camera, lens, etc.) filter + search

- Recursive folder browsing

- "On this day" memories

- Unique permalinks for every photo

- Reverse geotagging (city, country names from GPS coordinates) without hitting external APIs

- Docker support for easy setup

It’s still experimental, but usable. Bugs, ideas, and contributions are welcome.
