Schluckauf - Web UI companion for Czkawka

[fadykuzman]

Hey Czakawka Community,

I've built a web-based companion tool for reviewing duplicate photos found by Czkawka. I wanted to share it here first before posting elsewhere, as I'd love feedback from fellow Czkawka users.

What it does

Schluckauf is a self-hosted web UI for reviewing duplicate photos found by Czkawka.
It provides a browser-based interface with keyboard shortcuts for fast decision-making.
Deploy with Docker, access from anywhere, mark duplicates as keep/trash.

Why I built it

I love Czkawka's speed and accuracy, but wanted a web interface for remote access and keyboard-driven review workflow. Schluckauf parses Czkawka's JSON output and provides a browser-based UI.

Schluckauf wouldn't exist without Czkawka. All the heavy lifting (scanning, similarity detection) is done by Czkawka CLI. Thank you @qarmin for this fantastic tool!

Feedback welcome

This is a POC/early version currently supporting duplicate photos only.

I'm planning to expand support to other Czkawka operations (duplicate videos, music, general files, big files, etc.). Would love to know:

• Is this useful for your workflow?
• Which Czkawka features would you want in a web UI?
• Any other feedback or suggestions?

If built in flexibe can be used on immich, I suggest to post also there.

Hey, thanks @webysther for the suggestion! Immich looks like a perfect fit - I'll definitely post there once I've gathered some initial feedback from this community.

I've also added Immich API integration to the roadmap as a future feature.

Appreciate you pointing this out! :)
