Wait, what does this actually do? It looks like it isn’t an emulator or a front end so….what’s it?
From the readme:
RomM (ROM Manager) allows you to scan, enrich, browse and play your game collection with a clean and responsive interface. With support for multiple platforms, various naming schemes, and custom tags, RomM is a must-have for anyone who plays on emulators.
various naming schemes
There’s only 1🤭
A compilation.

wip. but you’re welcome to reply additions, critique, rec. etc…
Does this integrate with emudeck somehow?
Looks cool, bookmarket for later use !
However, the GUI looks very Discordish and is probably inspired by it. I hope it only stays at that and won’t put some shady privacy nightmare code into it !
To me this looks nothing like Discord beyond having a compact sidebar… In fact, I would hope that Discord never inspires any software UI, because it really fucking sucks.
It’s probably not a good idea to infer how privacy friendly an open source software is, based on such a superficial visual similarity to a closed source proprietary product.
The UI is the main point of RomM project, the actual emulation is done by another tool called EmulatorJS
I keep my ROMs in the RetroPie folder structure to access them over the network. Would this work with that?
It can. I’ll create an URI soon 🧵
