yomucli is a terminal-based manga and comic reader that displays images directly in your terminal using kitty's inline image protocol.
It supports multiple archive formats and includes metadata fetching from AniList.
Why did I make yomucli?
I wanted a fast, lightweight way to read manga and comics directly in the terminal without needing a separate GUI application.
yomucli leverages kitty terminal's inline image support to provide a seamless reading experience while keeping everything in the terminal.
