MM
MM is a local-first media library manager for photos, videos, and audio. It helps you scan existing folders, import new files safely, organize media with tags and albums, and browse everything from a web UI.

What you can do with MM
- Browse your local media collection in a web UI.
- Import photos and videos into predictable folders.
- Keep your original files untouched while indexing.
- Search and organize media with tags, albums, ratings, places, and dates.
- Start locally and move to a server-backed setup later if you need it.

macOS:
brew install exiftool ffmpeg
Ubuntu / Debian:

It's a separate Swift codebase that talks to this server over HTTP and
shares no code with the web frontend (by design — native UI). See
ios/README.md for build instructions.
