No explorer needed.
Just drag it to your bucket.
A tiny dual-pane file manager for MinIO, SeaweedFS and any S3-compatible storage. Your computer on the left, your bucket on the right. Drag to back up, drag back to restore.
⇄ Two panes, one gesture
Drag left → right to upload, right → left to download. Drop on a folder or a breadcrumb to target it. You can also drop straight from Finder or Explorer.
⚡ Built for speed
Six files in parallel. Big files go up as multipart uploads with four parts in flight. Live progress, speed and cancel for every transfer.
👁 Quick look
Press Space to preview images, video, audio, PDF and text on either side, without downloading first.
🏠 Self-hosted friendly
Path-style requests are on by default. Point it at http://nas:9000 and it just works. No
"advanced settings" hunt.
🛟 Safe by design
Never deletes or overwrites your local files. Collisions become name (1).ext, and partial
downloads never look complete.
🪶 Tiny & open source
About 10 MB, native on macOS, Windows and Linux. MIT licensed: read the code that handles your keys.

FAQ
Which servers does it work with?
Anything that speaks the S3 API: MinIO, SeaweedFS, Garage, Ceph RGW, Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, Wasabi and AWS S3. For AWS you can turn path-style off.
Where are my credentials stored?
Only on your computer, in the app's config folder, readable only by your user. Nothing is sent anywhere except to the endpoint you configure. The code is open: config.rs.
Windows says "Windows protected your PC"
Windows builds aren't code-signed yet. Click More info → Run anyway. The macOS build is signed and notarized by Apple.
Can I drag files from the app to my desktop?
Not yet. Drag them into the left pane (any folder on your computer), or select them and press F5.
My server uses a self-signed HTTPS certificate
That isn't supported yet. Use plain HTTP inside your LAN, or a trusted certificate (e.g. Let's Encrypt). It's on the roadmap.
