ZIP Upload Plan

When a legal-to-use ROM or game-file ZIP is uploaded to the correct folder, this page can list it without a manual page rewrite.

  • Upload path: downloads/roms/system-folder/file-name.zip
  • Only ZIP files display: README files and other files are ignored.
  • System cards: click a card to fetch that system folder from GitHub.
  • Alphabet filter: after loading a system, filter by the first letter of the filename.
  • Fallback: if no ZIPs exist yet, the page displays a pending message.
