Browse, upload, edit, preview, and archive the files on your server from any web browser, with no FTP client, no shell session, and no database to set up. Tiny File Manager lists every folder in a sortable table showing size, modified date, permissions, and owner, with a search box that filters as you type. Drag files into the upload zone, send several at once, or paste a URL for the server to fetch. Rename items, select several to copy, move, delete, or pack into a zip or tar archive, and extract uploaded archives on the server. Click any text file to open the built-in editor, which offers syntax highlighting for 150+ languages and 35+ color themes, so quick fixes to configs and scripts happen where the files live. Images, audio, video, and text open in a preview without downloading, and every file has a copyable direct link. Give teammates or clients their own accounts, each locked to a root folder you choose, mark accounts read-only, and limit uploads to approved file extensions. Hide folders you never want listed, restrict access with IP allow and block lists, switch between light and dark themes, pick from 35+ interface languages, and use the responsive layout on a phone. Setup is one file copied to a web server, or one Docker container. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console.

FileBrowser Quantum is an open-source, self-hosted web file manager that transforms any directory tree or mounted storage volume into a fast, searchable cloud drive accessible from any browser. You can mount multiple independent filesystem sources at once and apply custom include or exclude rules to keep sensitive system folders hidden from everyday browsing. A background indexing engine powers instant as-you-type search across millions of files, letting you filter results by file size, folder size, media type, or modification date in milliseconds. Rich media thumbnails render automatically for videos, office documents, audio album artwork, and interactive 3D models, while integrated OnlyOffice support lets you edit spreadsheets and word processing documents directly inside your browser tab. Built-in WebDAV server support allows desktop operating systems and mobile file apps to mount your remote directories as native network drives. Sharing files with external collaborators takes seconds through customizable public or private links with expiration timers, download limits, password protection, anonymous upload permissions, and custom branding themes. Administrators can authenticate users via OpenID Connect, LDAP, JSON Web Tokens, proxy headers, or local passwords with two-factor authentication, then enforce path-level read, write, and delete rules per user or group. Developers and automation engineers can generate long-lived API tokens and explore the interactive Swagger endpoint to script file transfers and directory provisioning.

FileGator is a self-hosted, multi-user web file manager that gives your team a shared place to upload, organize, preview, and download files through the browser, with every person fenced into the folders they are allowed to touch. Create accounts for colleagues, students, or clients and give each one a home folder plus permissions that decide what they can read, write, rename, or delete. Everyone gets the full file toolkit: copy, move, rename, edit, create, delete, and preview, plus zip and unzip for bundling archives on the server. Select several files or folders and download them together, or zip a remote directory and pull it down in a single transfer. Uploads accept drag and drop with a live progress bar, and chunked transfers pause and resume, so a multi-gigabyte video survives an unstable connection. Point FileGator at a plain folder on the server disk or connect an Amazon S3 bucket as the storage adapter behind the same interface. Teachers collect assignments through it, field teams drop photos and documents from the road, and families share one photo archive without anyone installing an FTP client. Admins manage users, roles, and permissions from one panel, and the application runs on ordinary PHP hosting you already know how to operate.

OpenList gathers every place your files live, local disks, S3 buckets, OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, NAS shares, and forty-odd other services, into one browsable file list behind a single login. Mount each storage at its own path and the whole collection behaves like one tidy drive: documents open in the browser, whether PDF, Markdown, source code, or Office files, images get a gallery mode, and videos and audio play in place with subtitle and lyric support. Everyday file work happens in the same window: upload, delete, rename, move, and copy, including copying directly between two storages when you are migrating off a cloud plan. Offline download tasks let the server fetch links for you in the background, and multi-threaded acceleration squeezes speed out of sluggish single connections. Every folder can also be mounted as a real drive on your computer through the built-in WebDAV and FTP servers, with per-user permissions deciding who may read, upload, rename, or delete. Protected routes add passwords in front of sensitive shares, permalinks hand out direct download links, and granular user rules can hide files or open archive contents without extracting them.

Point a browser at your server's folders and skip the FTP clients, the SSH tunnels, and the heavyweight cloud clones: Mikochi turns any directory on your machine into a clean web file browser you can open from anywhere. You browse nested folders in a fast list view, jump to files with fuzzy search, upload new material, create folders, rename items, and delete what is no longer needed. Whole directories come down as a single tar.gz archive, which makes backups and bulk transfers painless. Media files get a smarter treatment: Mikochi generates streaming links that open directly in VLC or mpv, so a film or album stored on the server plays on your screen without downloading gigabytes first. Access stays protected behind a username and password login with JWT sessions, and you can serve everything over TLS with your own certificates or disable authentication entirely on a trusted private network. Deployment takes one Docker command with a mounted data directory, and Kubernetes users get an official Helm chart. Homelab owners point it at a NAS share, developers drop it on a build box, and anyone tired of scp commands gets a permanent window into their files.

IVFi-PHP turns folders on your server into browsable media galleries: drop one PHP file into a web root and every directory of photos, videos, and audio becomes a polished, searchable index page. Hovering a filename previews the image or video inline, and clicking opens the gallery view where you can move through a whole directory's media, download originals, or reverse-search an image. Audio files play in place with a live visualiser, seeking, and their own volume control. Finding things is instant: filter filenames or file types with plain text, wildcards, or full regular expressions, sort by name, date, or size with settings that persist between visits, and dates automatically match the visitor's timezone. Select any set of files and download them as a single ZIP archive, or share direct download links file by file. Directories can render their README files as documentation pages, listings can hide sensitive entries through server-side filters, and optional Digest authentication keeps a listing private without any account database. Themes and per-visitor display preferences restyle the index, basic listings work even with JavaScript disabled, and the whole application also ships as a Docker image for a one-container deployment.

HFS turns any folder on a server into a file-sharing site that visitors open in a browser, with no upload step and no space or bandwidth cap beyond your own disk. Visitors browse, search, and download single files or whole folders as ZIP archives that start streaming immediately, and interrupted uploads or downloads can resume. A virtual file system lets you arrange and rename what is shared without touching the files on disk, while accounts and per-folder permissions decide who can see, download, upload, or delete. The admin web panel covers HTTPS with built-in certificate generation, bandwidth limits globally or per IP address, geographic blocking by country, and live connection monitoring with disconnect and IP ban. Plugins add thumbnails, share links, LDAP, two-factor sign-in, download quotas, and notifications, and a few lines of JavaScript in the admin panel can change the look or the backend behavior without a restart. The front end speaks 27+ languages, works on phones, and includes a media player for audio and video. Typical uses include sending large files to friends without uploading them first, publishing a download area, and collecting uploads from visitors.

Filestash puts a Dropbox-style web interface in front of the SFTP servers, S3 buckets, SMB shares, and WebDAV storage you already run, so no file has to move. Administrators enable each connector, including FTP, NFS, Git, Dropbox, Google Drive, Storj, IPFS, and Backblaze B2, from one admin console. Colleagues browse, rename, move, and upload in a single folder view, with resumable uploads for big transfers. Thumbnails cover JPEG, PNG, WebP, TIFF, HEIF, and RAW photos. Images open with an EXIF info panel, and PDFs, audio, video, and EPUB ebooks open right in the browser. A CodeMirror editor handles text and code, and HLS transcoding streams video on demand. Outside guests get a shared link instead of credentials, with an optional password, an expiry date, and read, write, or upload-only rights. Limit a link to one email address or a whole domain, or mount it as a network drive. A workflow engine chains emails and HTTP calls after file events, webhooks, or schedules. Flip one admin setting and Claude, ChatGPT, and Mistral Le Chat can use the connected storage as MCP tools. Downloadable file apps add Office documents, 3D models, and GIS maps. Runtime plugins are zip files dropped into the plugins folder. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console.

Your files already live in five places; filex puts them in one tree and serves that tree back out through almost any protocol. Mount local disks, S3 buckets, SFTP servers, WebDAV shares, FTP sites, and SMB network drives side by side, then copy in one storage and paste into another without thinking about where anything physically sits. The same tree is reachable as S3, SFTP, FTPS, NFS, and WebDAV, so rclone, restic, the AWS CLI, WinSCP, or FileZilla all work against it with the same per-user and per-folder permissions as the web interface. Sharing leaves the server under your control: public links carry a PIN, an expiry, and a download limit, and file-request links let people upload into a folder without seeing its contents. Anything deleted stays recoverable inside a retention window, overwritten files keep version snapshots, and encrypted folders are sealed in the browser so the server never receives a key. People sign in with OIDC single sign-on, LDAP or Active Directory, or the host machine's own accounts, with roles, groups, and tenants plus folder-level exceptions. A desktop app keeps chosen folders in sync within about a second, the file manager embeds into other products as a web component, and an MCP server plus REST API let agents work the same tree. It runs from one static binary or container on port 5212. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

To give Docker administrators and home lab operators a fast, modern workspace for server-side storage, NextExplorer delivers a browser-based file manager with instant ripgrep search, inline editing, and multi-volume navigation. Any directory mounted under your container volume root appears immediately in the sidebar with capacity usage indicators, favorite pins, and switchable grid, list, and column browsing layouts. You can preview images, stream videos and audio with FFmpeg-generated thumbnails, read PDFs, edit source code and configuration files in the syntax-highlighted editor, or collaborate on office documents through an integrated ONLYOFFICE Document Server. Deep content search powered by ripgrep scans filenames and file contents across terabytes of storage in seconds, while bundled 7-Zip support inspects and extracts password-protected ZIP, 7z, RAR, TAR, and ISO archives with built-in zip-bomb protection. Teams can share folders via read-only or read-write links, isolate personal user directories, enforce path-level read-only or hidden access rules, and authenticate through local accounts or OpenID Connect identity providers such as Authentik and Authelia.
