## Common questions

### Can I back up the whole library?

Yes, Export CSV downloads the whole library. You can import that file back later.

### Can I import a CLZ Games CSV?

Yes. The import dialog lets you pick or detect the separator, match English or Spanish headers, create unknown platforms, and skip rows already in the library.

### Can I use PostgreSQL instead of SQLite?

Yes. SQLite is the default database, and PostgreSQL is optional.

### How do I change the interface language?

Choose it in Settings -> Language. The choice is saved in that browser.

### How are hardware items treated?

An item with a hardware type is treated as hardware, while anything else is a video game. Filters, the item dialog, and statistics can distinguish them by hardware type.

### How is the Docker image built?

It is built by GitHub Actions on pushes to main and on v* git tags. Versions follow SemVer, and main builds use the release version in the app version file.
