The content analysis can be off. The following text has been flagged "negative":

> STOP asking Claude Code to design your apps. It’s great for logic, not design. Google Stitch 2.0 + Claude Code via MCP is the workflow that finally fixes the AI slop problem.

Vibe coded CRMs do exist. They are not open to the public though, as they are just used by the company that built them tailored to their needs is all.

Same with more complex systems: entire shop systems with payment integration, ERP and all – heavily supported by LLM code tools with a 3-10x productivity boost, just done by the CTO and no additional developers needed. They exist, the shop greets it’s customers and all you see is Vue and Tailwind as the tech stack where Shopify could’ve been. It’s now completely owned by the company selling things (they just don't sell the software).

Nice tool! I tested it against imdb.com with its large graphql responses and after a few requests API Parrot crashed.

Try a Hackintosh, e.g. as a virtual machine on your Windows or Linux host.

Maybe off-topic, but: is "just closing without comment or discussion" an acceptable way of a maintainer to deal with pull requests?

Asking as someone who only occasionally contributed (or tried to) with a repository.

Not sure what you mean by "media scanning", but if you assume that Media Hoarder isn't able to scan directories of your media, then I need to update the README - because it absolutely DOES this.

[Edit]: I read your post a second time, you use the term "media scanning" for two different things:

1/ Scanning in files

2/ Providing Metadata

Both are supported by Media Hoarder, none of the metadata you see in the screenshots and demos are manually provided by the user.

If you want to dig a bit deeper (coming from the README), you can see linked documents that go into detail for both topics:

You're welcome :)

I didn't plan to do direct comparisons, but it's not the first time someone asked about this, I might have to do it...

I might introduce an option for self-defining the color scheme. Care to head over to GitHub and create an issue on it and volunteer for testing?

> playing files

Thanks for pointing this out. Of course, Media Hoarder "plays files" - by launching the media player of your choice. I quickly updated the README :|
