Manga Reader

I wanted to read downloaded manga on my phone without the archive-shaped friction that iOS puts in the way. The app opens comic archives directly and pages through them with the reading behaviour the format expects, including right-to-left.

The piece I am most pleased with is the thumbnail extension. Comic archives show as generic file icons in the Files app; a Quick Look extension backed by a shared archive-reading framework makes them render their cover instead. Splitting that decoding into a shared target so both the app and the extension could use it was the interesting design problem.
