Dufs is a Rust-based command-line file server that serves static files with support for uploading, searching, access control, and WebDAV. It runs as a single binary and is easy to deploy via cargo, Docker, Homebrew, or prebuilt binaries.

Use cases

• serve a directory over http
• share files with drag-and-drop uploads
• expose a folder via webdav
• run a self-hosted cloud disk
• download a folder as a zip archive
• serve a single page application with static assets
• control read/write access per user and path

When to choose

• you need a quick single-binary static file server with upload support
• you want webdav access to a directory
• you need simple per-path access control without a full CMS
• you want a lightweight self-hosted file sharing tool

When to avoid

• you need a full-featured cloud storage platform with user management
• you need multi-node replication or sync across devices
• you need a database-backed media server
