Folderlan

Folderlan is a self-hosted file-sharing platform. One server, any device with a browser. You don't need internet on your LAN, third-party cloud storage, or a subscription — your files stay on your own hardware. Releases.

What does it solve?

Forget about limitations. Share files instantly, directly between devices on the same Wi-Fi network, without internet, Bluetooth, or cables. It can also be deployed as a private cloud on a VPS, acting as your own minimalist "Google Drive."

Key Features

• Users & roles — one owner with full control and unlimited visitors with configurable permissions (upload, delete own files, storage quotas).
• Granular sharing — grant viewer or collaborator access on specific files to specific users.
• Public/Private visibility — per-file, toggleable with a single click.
• File System Watcher — detects files added or removed in the uploads/ folder in real-time and registers them automatically.
• Full audit log — every action is logged with timestamp, user, IP, and event type.
• JWT authentication + Argon2 password hashing.
• Single binary — server + API + embedded web UI; nothing else to install.
• 4 languages — English, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese.
