## What it is
A cross-platform desktop application that turns a Telegram account into a personal cloud storage drive, built with Tauri, Rust, React, and TypeScript. It provides a file-manager workspace over Saved Messages and Telegram channels with uploads, downloads, folders, previews, streaming, sharing, a local REST API, and an opt-in encrypted-transfer mode.

## Use cases
- use my telegram account as free cloud storage
- manage files stored in telegram saved messages
- upload and download large files through telegram
- stream videos stored in telegram channels
- encrypt files before uploading to telegram
- organize telegram channels as folders in a file manager

## When to choose
- you already use Telegram and want a desktop-style file manager over your stored files
- you want encrypted transfers and a local REST API on top of Telegram storage
- you need a cross-platform app for Windows, macOS, Linux, or Android

## When to avoid
- you need guaranteed unlimited storage - Telegram account, service, and per-file limits (~2GB per file) still apply
- you need enterprise cloud storage with SLAs, compliance, or team access controls
- you are uncomfortable supplying your own Telegram API credentials to a third-party app
