Overview

Audiobookshelf is a self hosted server for audiobooks and podcasts, with a web player, progress sync, multi user accounts, series and collections and an OPDS feed. Native iOS and Android apps connect to the same library.

Why the cloudimg image

The server is preconfigured with ffmpeg, nginx WebSocket proxying and systemd, hardened, and starts at the create root user screen so only you set the admin password. The library lives on a dedicated resizable data disk supporting encryption at rest, and 24/7 cloudimg support covers upgrades, migration and TLS setup.
