Media Collection vs Moon Phase
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Media Collection
This app helps you easily catalog and manage your personal blu-ray and dvd collection, including movies and TV series. Designed for simplicity and speed, it works completely offline with no accounts, ads, or tracking.Built using a custom lightweight framework with minimal dependencies, this app is focused on performance and long-term stability. All data stays on your device - your collection is private and secure.For advanced users, the app also offers an optional synchronization feature. To use this, you must host and administer your own server. Synchronization requires a REST web service that you create yourself or the official open-source server project (https://github.com/ReneArentz/net.forestany.mediacollectionrest.webservice). This ensures that all data remains entirely under your control, with no external services involved.Ideal for collectors who want a fast, no-frills way to keep track of their media library while maintaining full ownership and privacy of their data.
Moon Phase
Shows the real time view of the Moon, providing information about the current moon phase. This code has been originally belonged to the set of "shallow sky" astronomy applets, developed by Akkana Peck as long ago as in 1996 to run on Sharp Zaurus PDA.
