I have been developing an app to maintain my inventory and generate album pages. Yes, I know there are a lot of them floating around.

I am a retired software developer and I started this primarily to keep my mind active. If it is useful to others then that is great. All my code and a couple of sample pdfs are on GitHub here.

This is nowhere near ready for prime time. It is developed as a cross-platform app but I am developing it on Linux and have never built it for windows or Mac. Also, there is no installation package or documentation.
It is free to try. All the source, build files and note of needed libs for building are there and are licensed as open source.

I am still chasing bugs but it is starting to become useable. I am quite proud of the pdfs it can generate. The two sample files shows what it can do. The Vatican City pdf is 8.5x11 and has color images and Michel catalog numbers. The USA file has greyscale images and no catalog numbers and is to be printed on 11x17 paper and cut down to 11x12 to fit my Scott album. I’ll drop more samples there as I generate them.

If there are any developers out there who can give me some pointers I would really appreciate it. I need some help on creating a Linux installation package and on what I need to do to get this building on Windows.
