EmulationStation Desktop Edition (ES-DE) v2.1.0 is now available for download! This release brings an optional dark color scheme for the menu system, scraping and viewing of PDF game manuals, aspect ratio settings for the miximage generator, improved system sorting support, and more!

ES Desktop is great but I prefer Skyscraper for media content https://github.com/muldjord/skyscraper/tree/master
Is it fine to leave or even “ghost” a project?
1 project | /r/opensource | 10 Jul 2023

Yes, but I would suggest to make it clear on the front page / README that the project is no longer being maintained and you would encourage someone to fork it if they want to continue development. For example, like this project did:
Emumovies and Retropie Themes
1 project | /r/RetroPie | 29 May 2023
GarlicOS Install Questions
1 project | /r/RG35XX | 12 May 2023

You can try skyskraper, at least there is "Skyscraper works perfectly on macOS" in the description

1 project | /r/RetroPie | 24 Jan 2023

This might help: Resource Cache

you might also try skyscraper, its a CLI tool for scraping folders to generate metadata for pegasus and other frontends: https://github.com/muldjord/skyscraper
Retrama-Turbo Help
1 project | /r/RetroPie | 5 Jan 2023

It's highly configurable through the command-line interface: https://github.com/muldjord/skyscraper/blob/master/docs/CLIHELP.md
Comic theme with videos
1 project | /r/RetroPie | 30 Dec 2022

Doing this by hand would be quite tedious, of course. Lars Muldjord's Skyscraper (https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Scraper/#lars-muldjords-skyscraper) has an "import" module to cache local resources (https://github.com/muldjord/skyscraper/blob/master/docs/IMPORT.md)
