What is GhostHub?

GhostHub is a zero-setup, mobile-first media server you can run instantly and share over the internet. No accounts. No config. Just swipe through your own folder like it’s TikTok.

Perfect for temporary sharing, personal libraries, or lightweight deployments with friends.

Runs as a Python script, one-click Windows .exe, or Docker container — no install, no accounts, no cloud.

Features:

  • Add custom folders and browse your media
  • TikTok-style swipe navigation for images & videos
  • Optional host sync — everyone sees the same media, watches at their own pace
  • Built-in real-time chat (ephemeral, anonymous)
  • Fully mobile and desktop optimized
  • Optional public sharing via Cloudflare Tunnel
  • Portable .exe with no dependencies or setup
  • Docker support for cross-platform compatibility
  • External config (media_categories.json) so you keep your folders
