I'm working on a small project and am looking for an open-source, flexible file-upload/manager. It would preferably come with an interface out of the box that can be highly customized, and connect to my backend. It would be accessible by the user, and they could upload their own files. Is there such a thing?
Are you trying to build something similar to DropBox [1] or Box.com [2] ?<p>There is a comparison of the two services on ibtimes today [3].<p>Colin Percival (hn:cpercival) has a similar service called tarsnap [4],
and at least some of his source code is open source, possibly all of
it (I'm not sure).<p>[1] <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.dropbox.com/</a><p>[2] <a href="https://www.box.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.box.com/</a><p>[3] <a href="http://www.ibtimes.com/dropbox-vs-boxnet-battle-boxes-362734" rel="nofollow">http://www.ibtimes.com/dropbox-vs-boxnet-battle-boxes-362734</a><p>[4] <a href="https://www.tarsnap.com/download.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.tarsnap.com/download.html</a>
I have run OpenUpload for years. It is a lot like a YouSendIt system.<p><a href="http://openupload.sourceforge.net/" rel="nofollow">http://openupload.sourceforge.net/</a>
