Suwayomi-JUI is a graphical manga reader and client for Suwayomi-Server. It can connect to an existing server instance or, on desktop platforms, launch and manage a server itself.
The application provides a native interface around the server’s library, sources, extensions, downloads, and chapter-management facilities. This avoids having to use Suwayomi solely through a web interface while retaining the advantages of a central server-backed manga collection.
Its Compose Multiplatform codebase targets both desktop systems and Android.
This is free and open source software.
