Docker

Uses the published image from GHCR:

Open http://localhost:8080

Data persists in the comic-data volume. Pin a version by setting image in docker-compose.yml (e.g. ghcr.io/tsukastore/comic-multi-web:v0.1.0).

Most day-to-day options (enabled sources, reader mode, proxy, log level, WebDAV) can also be changed in the app under Settings.
