What is myazo?
Myazo is a self-hosted screenshot sharing tool with a cross-platform Python client and a lightweight PHP server. The client captures screenshots using OS built-in tools on Linux, macOS, and Windows, then uploads them to your own server which stores images and returns a public URL. It can also upload directly to Gyazo's servers as an alternative client. Configuration uses an INI file for the client and a PHP array for the server. Licensed under MIT.
