DESCRIPTION
filebrowser provides a self-hosted web-based file management interface accessible through any browser. It creates a complete file server with upload, download, preview, search, and sharing capabilities, along with a built-in code editor for text files.
The application supports user authentication with granular permissions, allowing different access levels for different directories. Multiple users can be configured with individual permissions controlling read, write, execute, and sharing capabilities.
