Tanoshi is a self-hosted manga reader that provides a web-based library for browsing, searching, reading, and tracking manga across devices.
It’s designed for users who want to run their own manga server, with support for multiple users, reading progress, automatic chapter updates, notifications, and integrations with MyAnimeList and AniList. There’s also a desktop version built with Tauri for users who prefer a single-device setup rather than hosting the service.
This is free and open source software.
