BirDy is a comic management tool. It simply allows you to index the
integrality of your collection (album, paraBD, magazine) and manage it
(borrowing, statistics) with a fully GUI swing interface.
BirDy is equivalent to :
BirDy was born because I couldn't find any good MacOs X complient
software to manage my comic collection. To my mind, the best tool to
perform such a management is BDGest' (which costs 30€). However its
community happens to be rather Microsoft Windows friendly and only
french-speaking. Moreover, BDGest' was developed with Visual Basic
language which is neither MacOs nor Linux complient.
BirDy can perform all the inherent operations of comic management software:
- index the informations of your albums, series, authors, dedications and so on...
- manage your paraBD objects: ex-libris, figurine, magazine ..etc..
- view several statistics
- manage the borrowers who vanish in the nature with your comics
BirDy
costs nothing, however you are free to make donations. With this money,
I will be able to buy a server and then host shared BirDy comic datas.
BirDy is available in french and english.
