piko

Project Overview

piko is a lightweight, modern PikPak client built with Kotlin Multiplatform. Android and Windows share the same UI and business code, following the Material 3 Expressive design guidelines.

Key Features

• Offline download: magnet links are parsed by work, section and episode, subtitles are grouped with videos, and full preview is available before saving
• Browse the drive by work: directories are grouped by work, section and episode, with a poster wall view and full-drive search
• Playback: episodes are organized by work and section, progress syncs with the official client, Android supports gesture control of brightness, volume and progress, Windows supports mouse and keyboard
• Transfer and management: downloads and streaming use 8 concurrent connections, and support lossless segment clipping, upload, server-side extraction and duplicate finding
• Cross-platform UI: Android uses Jetpack Compose and libmpv, Windows uses a GPU-accelerated Compose Multiplatform UI with video fed through D3D11 straight to Skia

Target Audience

• PikPak users who want a better client experience
• Users who manage cloud drive videos across Android and Windows
• Developers and users who value open source, polished UI and high-performance playback
