Show HN: GhostHub – Instant, zero-setup media server
I built GhostHub because I was tired of Plex/Jellyfin setups just to watch or share a few files.
This lets you:
- Run instantly (Python script, .exe, or Docker)
- Browse media in a swipe-based UI (mobile + desktop)
- Share online with built-in tunnel support (Cloudflare or Pinggy)
- Set session passwords, live sync views, and even chat
No logins. No setup. Just run it, point it to a folder, and go.
Live demo (limited features): https://ghosthub.net https://ghosthub.net
Would love feedback, bug reports, or ideas!

- badmonster 1y agoHow does GhostHub implement real-time synchronization between clients during media playback, and how is this affected by the current limitation where sync mode bypasses session password enforcement?
- BleedingXiko 1y agoit syncs which media is being viewed, not playback position (Yet). anyone can start sync, but now it prompts for a password if one’s set. before 1.5, sync skipped password checks but that’s fixed now.
