Romm
RomM is a self-hosted ROM manager and web-based game emulator designed to catalog and organize digital game libraries. It provides a central web interface for managing game files, tracking titles, and maintaining a digital repository of artwork and achievement data.
The system enables gameplay through embedded browser-based emulation and the ability to trigger external local players. It differentiates its library management by automatically fetching metadata from external databases and using filename-pattern parsing to categorize games via tags.
The platform supports multi-user environments through role-based access control, allowing shared library access with customizable permission levels for viewing and interacting with the collection.
