Small bottle app to share files and folders, without all the complexity of existing alternatives :

• no database to setup
• no webserver to setup
• no syncing
• easier to install and update

Of course it doesn’t come with all the features other options offer.

Ideas about what should come

• [ ] Preview
• [ ] Use folders for login/password/config sessions
• [ ] FIX UI: shared listing, make sure we don’t see .. when we are at the root folder
• [X] UI: select files to download cf tag ‘ui-multi-select’
• [ ] API: select files to download
• [ ] Config file
• [ ] edit share properties

• [ ] see how to share from a cellphone
• [ ] Share with user

• [ ] Deployable standalone binary/ easier install https://nylas.com/blog/packaging-deploying-python
• [ ] CSRF
• [ ] strip ‘/\’ from paths
• [ ] UI: sharing URL. figure out how to not have two different urls. For now if we do shared… to get a file’s content, angular tries to map it to the $scope.files peut être simplement ?download pour les url dans files
• [ ] check realpath vs abspath: realpath will follow symlinks ???
• [ ] Authentication process using the kv store
