fgallery is a static photo gallery generator that creates lightweight websites for displaying collections of photographs. It produces HTML, JavaScript and image assets that can be published on ordinary web hosting without requiring a database or server-side application.
The software processes photographs before generating a gallery, automatically adjusting image orientation, creating thumbnails and optimising supported image formats. Photographs can be arranged chronologically, making it convenient to combine pictures taken with several cameras.
The generated gallery adapts to different screen sizes and provides an uncluttered viewing experience. It supports image captions, panoramic photographs and downloadable archives containing the original images.
fgallery consists of a generation script and a JavaScript viewer. The two components can also be used independently, allowing developers to integrate its presentation system with other applications.
This is free and open source software.
