## What it is
Stash is a self-hosted web application written in Go that organizes, tags, and streams personal video and image collections through a browser interface. It scrapes metadata from the internet, supports community plugins and scrapers, and provides statistics about performers, tags, and studios.

## Use cases
- organize a personal video and image collection
- stream local video files to a web browser
- scrape metadata for scenes from websites
- tag and rate videos with performers and studios
- self-host a private media library with password protection
- create galleries from image folders and zip files
- track statistics about a media collection

## When to choose
- you want a self-hosted, private media organizer for adult or general video/image content
- you need automatic metadata scraping and tagging for large video libraries
- you want browser-based streaming of diverse video formats
- you want an extensible system with community plugins and scrapers

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose media server like Plex or Jellyfin for TV/movie libraries
- you want a cloud-synced service rather than a self-hosted app
- you need a lightweight CLI-only tool without a web interface
- you cannot run Go binaries or Docker on your platform
