I’ve been reading manga for a long time, usually relying on my old-ass tablet and scanlations (or whatever they’re called). I came across the Livro app for the Meta Quest 3, and I intended to read manga on it. However, I found out you can’t move the manga folders like you would on a tablet.

So, this morning I had Claude Code create a Go app that can be baked into a Linux/Windows exec to compress manga chapters into corresponding cbz files. Those files can just be copied into the Quest 3 through a link cable, and opened on Livro. Because Livro has trouble rendering WebP files, my app also converts WebP to PNG. As you can see in the video, it works.

Here’s the repo for the app:
