FileCloud is a web-based file manager designed for personal servers, emphasizing speed and a clean interface. It supports drag-and-drop uploads, in-browser code editing, and media previews. Users can rename, organize, and customize folder colors directly within the UI.

The platform runs on Node.js with an Express backend and vanilla JavaScript frontend. It includes full internationalization support for English and Bulgarian. Built-in syntax highlighting helps manage code files like .js, .py, and .css without leaving the browser.

Setup requires Node.js and npm, with deployment options via systemd for Linux users. Security recommendations include adding authentication and SSL when exposing the service online. The open-source project accepts community contributions through GitHub.

Developers looking for a self-hosted file solution may find FileCloud’s minimal design and modern UI appealing. Its lightweight nature makes it suitable for low-resource environments. The new folder color feature adds visual organization for personal workflows.
