You can just change .zip to .cbz either manually via a filebrowser or a script (cbz are essentially just zips).
I think .cbz can only contain images, no subfolders, so maybe you need to make a .cbz per chapter or do a lot of remaming to be able to put them in one directory.
Cbr is the same but for .rar files (which are not open source?).
I think there is a program for adding metadata to manga like Comictagger (which does not work too well for manga) but I can't remember the name ...
Thank you.
Looks like I was wrong about the subfolders! Just tested it and it looks like you can just zip a bunch of folders called chapter 1, 2, 3, etc, rename to .cbz and at least Komga and YACreader seem to just go through all of them when reading. Very cool!
