laravel-zipstream VS koel

To learn more about this package just visit the documentation here.

For downloading I tried this https://github.com/maennchen/ZipStream-PHP and later tried this as well https://github.com/stechstudio/laravel-zipstream but the download "hangs" until all photos are processed (until the loop is done) and only at the end it shows the save dialog. Then when you save it, it's already downloaded, because it downloaded it during that "hang" period. The problem is it looks like a "delay" when user clicks download button. When working with small amount of data that's tolerant, but when I want to download, for example, a few GB, it still downloads it but it's doing it in the background. When I open network tab I see the request is pending and the size column is growing (cause it's downloading files) and then after couple of minutes (it depends on your download speed) it shows a save dialog.

Koel Music Server (https://github.com/koel/koel) Opensource music server, nice GUI and allows high fidelity streaming of all your music files

You could take a look at koel. I don’t see it suggested that often. The iOS app is open source, but cost $9.99 on the App Store (one time purchase, not a subscription).

Koel. It's simple, it works out of the box, is ready to use despite low effort setup.

Koel - stream your music collection. A little tough to setup and the android app is a little buggy, but the best interface I've seen for such an app (lmk if you know pretty alternatives).

koel looks nice and comes with native apps too.

Koel

while Jellyfin is great for video, i have found its music streaming to be lacking... i prefer to use Koel ( https://github.com/koel/koel ) it only supports a single library of music, but it does pretty much exactly what i want it to; and it has a native (at least android, not sure about ios) mobile client, all open source. its great.

I would like to install koel on a Digital Ocean droplet. However, I have not found their instructions to be very helpful regarding the installation of prerequisites. One article gave some suggestions, but they were out of date or otherwise incompatible.
