Linux desktop

A native GTK4 & libadwaita app. Browse your collection, log plays, check stats, and pick something for game night.

Download

bgdb-desktop-linux-x86_64.tar.gz · 63 MB · 64-bit (x86_64)


Unpack it and run the installer:

tar -xzf bgdb-desktop-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
cd bgdb-desktop-linux-x86_64
./install.sh

Everything goes under your home directory — no root needed. The app then appears in your application menu. ./install.sh --uninstall removes it again, and ./bgdb-desktop runs it without installing anything. Needs GTK4 and libadwaita; the bundle brings its own Python.

Web

You are using it. Nothing to install, and it is the one that always has the newest features first.

Android

A native Kotlin app, including an offline cache and a barcode scanner that adds a game from its box. Not yet on the Play Store.

Windows

A native WinUI 3 app with the same features as the Linux one. Build it from source for now — there is no installer yet.

All four are open source. The desktop, Android and Windows apps talk to the same API this site does, so anything you record in one shows up in the rest.
