Tiny File Manager is a single-file PHP web application for managing files and folders through a browser, with upload, download, editing, preview, and search capabilities. It requires no database, supports multi-user authentication with per-user directories, and includes a built-in code editor with syntax highlighting for 150+ languages.

Use cases

  • manage files on a web server through a browser
  • upload and download files without FTP
  • edit code files online with syntax highlighting
  • give multiple users their own private file directories
  • quickly deploy a file manager with zero configuration
  • preview images and documents in the browser
  • create zip archives for bulk downloads

When to choose

  • you need a lightweight file manager with no database or dependencies
  • you want to drop a single PHP file into any web directory and be done
  • you need multi-user access with per-folder permissions
  • you want a built-in online code editor with syntax highlighting

When to avoid

  • you need a production-grade file manager exposed publicly long-term (the README itself warns against this)
  • your server does not run PHP 5.5+
  • you need advanced features like versioning, sync, or sharing links
  • you require a desktop or native file manager experience
