Show HN: Miro-pdf v0.9.0 – Multi-page support

https://github.com/vincent-uden/miro

finally managed to dedicate some time to a feature that has been on my mind for a long while. Previously the pdf viewer could only show one page at a time which implied some friction when navigating files. Now it is possible to see any number of pages on the screen at the same time, in several different layouts (such as single page, two pages next to each other, two pages next to each other with a separate title page and a presentation layout).

While this might seem small on the outside it has a lot of architectural benefits for the program which unblocks me to work on support for annotations/comments for the pdfs which is the highest priority going forwards.

The program is fully native, no Tauri or Electron while still working (and feeling the same) on Windows, Linux and Mac.

This is very interesting, thank you for sharing. Did you maybe consider dark mode (displaying PDFs with inverted colours)?

That is already supported :) The interface can be light or dark and the pdf can be light or dark, independent of each other if you so please.
