Vertigo

Vertigo is a web app designed to help you organize, manage, and track your comic book collection with ease. Created using Vue.js and Flask

⚠ Disclaimer ⚠: Vertigo is WIP and under active development. Expect occasional bugs, incomplete features, and potential breaking changes as I add new features and improve functionality. Only the basic CRUD is done till now.

Goals:

• A responsive modern web app to track and curate physical comicbook collection
• Search and filter options based on various criteria such as title, publisher etc.
• Track reading progress (read/unread, backlog and ratings if needed).
• Generate insightful statistics on collection.
• Explore options to integrate with external APIs for automatic fetching of details.
• Backup/Export User Data to commonly used formats.
