ComicKhan - CBZ/CBR/PDF Reader

Notice: Unfortunately, during the past few years a lot has happened in my life and I couldn't maintain this repo and project properly. At the same time the codebase has become a bit old and I believe any possible feature development or bug fixing is really difficult right now. I decided to archive this repo. But regardless of that, I am still willing to work on this project. In the feature, if the life becomes easier and I have the time, I am definitely looking forward to planning a rewrite using newer frameworks like swiftUI and async await and probably try to reuse bunch of components from here.

ComicKhan is an app for reading your comic files (.cbz /.cbr/.pdf) on your iPhone and iPad.
