What is Photoview?

Photoview is a simple and user-friendly photo gallery that can easily be installed on personal servers. It's made for photographers and aims to provide an easy and fast way to navigate directories, with thousands of high resolution photos.

Main features

  • Closely tied to the file system. The website presents the images found on the local filesystem of the server, directories are mapped to albums.

  • User management. Each user is created along with a path on the local filesystem, photos within that path can be accessed by that user.

  • Photo sharing. Photos and albums can easily be shared with other users or publicly with a unique URL.

  • Made for photography. The website is ment as a way to present photographies, and thus supports RAW file formats, and EXIF parsing.

  • Performant. Thumbnails are automatically generated and photos first load when they are visible on the screen. In full screen, thumbnails are displayed until the high resolution image has been fully loaded.
