PhotoSort

Are your family photos just piling up? I know mine were. That feeling of never getting around to organizing them, maybe even feeling a bit overwhelmed opening those folders? I believe the photos we keep are the ones we actually look at.

That's why I built PhotoSort. As a dad who loves taking pictures (often in RAW+JPG!), I needed a faster way to sift through shots, pick the keepers, and maybe find the really good ones for editing later. Lightroom felt too heavy for just the initial sorting, and I couldn't find a lightweight tool that handled JPG+RAW pairs easily.

So, as a near-total coding beginner, I somehow managed to build this app with AI! It's simple, does one job well, and now I'm sharing it, hoping it helps someone else too.

PhotoSort helps you quickly categorize photos into folders (I use "Keep," "Maybe," "Delete Later," hence the 3 slots). It's designed to show your photos as large as possible while keeping the interface clean.

Key Highlights:

• Fast Sorting: Use WASD or arrow keys to flip through photos, and press 1, 2, or 3 to move the current photo into a preset folder.
• JPG+RAW Aware: Optionally handles paired RAW files when you move JPGs.
• RAW Direct Load: Load and sort RAW files directly if you prefer.
• Flexible Viewing: Single view, 2x2/3x3 grids (F1-F3), Zoom/Pan, and a helpful Minimap.
• Safe: No delete function! Photos are only moved, never deleted by the app.
• Simple & Clean: Focused on the core sorting task.
• Totally Local & Portable: Runs directly from the folder, no installation needed. Your photos stay on your PC.
• No Fluff: No AI, no ads.
