FileBrowser Quantum is a self-hosted web-based file manager written in Go, forked from the filebrowser project with advanced features like multiple sources, OIDC/LDAP/JWT authentication, and real-time search. It serves a responsive web UI for browsing, previewing, editing, and sharing files.

Use cases

  • manage files on my server through a web browser
  • self-hosted file manager with user accounts and sharing
  • browse and preview files over the web with thumbnails
  • web-based file browser with OIDC or LDAP login
  • share files with links from my own storage
  • edit text files remotely via a web interface

When to choose

  • you want a lightweight, single-binary self-hosted file manager
  • you need multiple storage sources with include/exclude rules
  • you need enterprise auth (OIDC, LDAP, JWT, proxy) with 2FA
  • you want fast real-time search and rich thumbnails (video, office, 3D)

When to avoid

  • you need full desktop file manager features like drag-and-drop OS integration
  • you want a cloud-sync solution like Nextcloud with calendars and contacts
  • you need distributed or multi-node file storage
