As I got tired of fighting with Jellyfin and SFTP for my media server, I decided to write a small web application that allows me to browse, manage, download and stream the files on my web server. It comes as a single-page application with a Preact frontend and a Go/Gin backend.<p>Creating this allowed me to get back into full-stack development, which was a bit tougher than expected after having taken a multi-year break from touching any frontend code.<p>You'll find the source code, binary releases and installation instructions on GitHub: <a href="https://github.com/zer0tonin/Mikochi">https://github.com/zer0tonin/Mikochi</a><p>The official Docker image: <a href="https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/zer0tonin/mikochi/general" rel="nofollow">https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/zer0tonin/mikochi/g...</a><p>And the helm chart: <a href="https://artifacthub.io/packages/helm/zer0tonin/mikochi" rel="nofollow">https://artifacthub.io/packages/helm/zer0tonin/mikochi</a><p>I also did a write-up about the project on my blog: <a href="https://alicegg.tech/2023/06/09/mikochi.html" rel="nofollow">https://alicegg.tech/2023/06/09/mikochi.html</a>
Hey, this looks neat. I usually just use SCP to upload, and then a basic http server to download files but this looks slicker. I'll give it a go.<p>This is weird to mention, but we have "developing niche file managers" in common. I just finished the first preview release of Aerome (aerome.net), it's going to grow into a cross platform file manager that uses AI to help manage your files. So nothing like your thing, but kinda like your thing.<p>Anyways, nice work on the file manager, I'm looking forward to trying it out.
