# Lychee: A Stunning and User-Friendly Photo Management System

Lychee is a free, open-source photo-management tool that runs on your server or web space. Installation is quick and easy, taking just seconds. With Lychee, you can upload, manage, and share your photos seamlessly, just like using a native application. It comes with all the essential features you need, ensuring your photos are stored securely. Read more on our [website](https://LycheeOrg.dev).

For even more advanced features, consider the Supporter Edition (SE). The SE version offers additional functionality to enhance your experience. Learn more about the Supporter Edition and its benefits [here](https://lycheeorg.dev/get-supporter-edition).

## ⚠️ Upgrade Notice to Version 7.0

**Version 7.0 introduces significant changes on the docker image.** Please refer to our [Upgrade Guide](https://lycheeorg.dev/docs/upgrade.html#upgrading-lychee-docker-installations-from-v6-to-v7) for detailed instructions on how to upgrade from previous versions.

## Support the Team

We aim to maintain a free open-source photography library with high quality of code.<br>
Being in control of our own data, our own pictures is something that we value above all.

Through [contributions, donations, and sponsorship](https://github.com/sponsors/LycheeOrg), you allow Lychee to thrive. Your donations directly support demo server costs, continuous enhancements, and most importantly bug fixes!

## Contributing

Contributions welcome! Check out our [Contribution Guide](docs/Contribute.md) and [documentation](https://github.com/LycheeOrg/Lychee/tree/master/docs) for setup, coding standards, and PR guidelines.

**AI-assisted contributions** are permitted — see our [AI/Claude Guidelines](docs/Contribute.md#using-aiclaude-for-contributions) and [AGENTS.md](AGENTS.md) for the Specification-Driven Development workflow.

## Installation

### Quick Try (Docker)

Want to quickly test Lychee? Use the minimal docker-compose template:

```bash
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LycheeOrg/Lychee/master/docker-compose.minimal.yaml
docker compose -f docker-compose.minimal.yaml up -d
```

Then open http://localhost:8000 in your browser. This setup includes a separate worker container for background jobs.
