Hi there. Long time lurker, first time poster.
As I was recently adding a few game to my collection, things were getting a bit out of hand organization-wise. Without looking around for an existing solution (past one Google search) I decided to make my own. This is just a post to see if there's any interest in using it - if yes, I will open source and post a build. If not, less work for me!
Now I see there a few options out there, but I just felt like building something I like the look of. So here it is.

If there's no demand for this I'm looking to develop something else so let me know if you have any ideas
