## What it is
The official MEGA (mega.nz) web client, a browser-based front end for MEGA's zero-knowledge encrypted cloud storage service. It implements User Controlled Encryption automatically and includes a secure boot mechanism that verifies the cryptographic hashes of all loaded resources.

## Use cases
- access my mega cloud storage from a browser
- self-host the mega web client for development
- encrypted file storage with zero-knowledge privacy
- upload and share files with end-to-end encryption
- contribute to or audit the mega.nz web client code
- run a local webclient instance with apache for testing

## When to choose
- you want to use, study, or contribute to the official MEGA web interface
- you need a browser-based client for MEGA's encrypted cloud storage
- you want to audit how MEGA's client-side encryption and secure boot work
- you are developing or testing changes against the MEGA web client locally

## When to avoid
- you need a generic cloud storage backend rather than a client for the MEGA service
- you want a simple drop-in file manager for your own server instead of a MEGA-specific client
- you need a CLI or API-only way to interact with MEGA
- you require a permissively licensed codebase, since the license is a custom MEGA license
