Drop
Open-source DRM-free game distribution and storefront platform

Drop is an open-source game distribution platform designed to host and share DRM-free games, offering a storefront-like experience similar to mainstream game platforms. It focuses on a fast, clean UI, strong access control, and flexible integrations for managing a game library.
Key Features
- Storefront for browsing, filtering, and discovering games
- Collections to curate and organize a library
- Rich metadata editing with support for Markdown and images
- Automatic metadata imports from external game databases (for example IGDB, GiantBomb, and PCGamingWiki)
- Server news posts surfaced to users in the web UI and client
- Flexible authentication options, including SSO, with SCIM planned
Use Cases
- Private game library hosting for a household, community, or organization
- Internal distribution portal for DRM-free titles and builds
- Curated catalog for events or communities that want a Steam-like browsing experience
Limitations and Considerations
- Focuses on DRM-free distribution; it is not intended to provide DRM enforcement
- Some identity-management features (such as SCIM) may be planned rather than fully available
Drop provides a practical way to manage and distribute a DRM-free game catalog with a modern storefront experience. It is best suited for environments that need controlled access, metadata-rich presentation, and a straightforward way to share games to authenticated users.
