PicList

PicList is an efficient cloud storage and image hosting platform management tool. Building upon the foundation of PicGo, it has been deeply modified and enhanced. Not only does it retain all of PicGo's features, but it also adds many new ones. For instance, the album now supports synchronized deletion of files in the cloud. Built-in image hosting options have been expanded to include WebDav, local image hosting, and SFTP. Additionally, PicList introduces comprehensive cloud storage management functions, including cloud directory viewing, file search, batch uploading, downloading, and file deletion, copying links in various formats, and previews for images, markdown, text, and videos. Moreover, it boasts a more powerful album function and numerous other improvements and enhancements.

How to migrate from PicGo

PicList V1.5.0 and above versions provide the one-click migration function. Enter the Settings page, and then click the right button on the Migrate from PicGo option to migrate. Please restart the application to take effect after migration.

PicList-Core

The core of PicList uses PicList-Core, which is modified based on the original PicGo-Core, and adapted for cloud-deleting feature, etc. At the same time, new features have been added, such as watermark adding, image compression/scaling/rotation/format conversion, which can be called through CLI command line, support starting the built-in upload server through picgo-server，and some other functional changes.
