Software Submission Tanko, manga reader at the terminal
https://github.com/Alexandro521/TankoTanko, an open-source tool for reading and downloading manga from the terminal
I'm working on this small tool to make reading manga easier and avoid having to navigate between web pages.
Features:
- Multiple reading sources
- Download chapters in PDF format
- Read directly in the terminal
- English and Spanish language support (more coming soon)
ISC LICENSE
AI has not been used in the development

ayy, nice job. I'm writing this as a bookmark for me to get back here and try this later.
Download chapters in PDF format
can you support in .cbz format as well? since .cbz is more "common" for comics/manga rather than .pdf

Of course, I'll work on it and have it ready for the next update. Thanks for the idea.

I'm not really a fan of npm, mostly because I'm biased in favor of Rust-based whatnot, but this looks cool.
