Show HN: I built an open-source wallpaper gallery for GitHub repos
Hey HN,
GitHub has hundreds of wallpaper repositories with thousands of
images, but actually browsing them is painful. You either clone
gigabytes locally or click through the file browser one by one.
So I built WALL·E Gallery. Use existing collections or Paste a repo URL→ instant gallery.
How it works:
- Fetches repo tree via GitHub (no cloning)
- Proxies thumbnails (~50KB instead of 10MB originals)
- Works with private repos too (with GitHub token)
Infinite scroll, search, dark mode, mobile friendly, self-hostable.
No accounts, no tracking.

Do share your suggestions/feedback.
Also, I did find my desktop wallpaper from this.

I had no idea that was a thing!
