About
Carosello is a fast, minimalist image and video viewer for Linux. It opens images and videos from a directory, lets you navigate between files with keyboard shortcuts or gestures, and displays them with zoom and pan capabilities.
Features:
- Keyboard-first navigation
- Pinch-to-zoom and scroll wheel zoom
- EXIF orientation support
- Video playback with seek controls
- Auto-hide overlay controls
A few optional capabilities are not granted by default; enable the ones you need with "flatpak override":
- Open media libraries kept outside the usual folders:
flatpak override --user --filesystem=/path/to/media:ro io.github.grigio.carosello
