## What it is
webMAN MOD is a homebrew plugin for PlayStation 3, forked from Deank's webMAN/sMAN, providing extended services such as a web server, FTP server, file manager, netiso, NTFS/exFAT support, PS3MAPI, gamepad emulation, and task automation. It runs on custom firmware and PS3HEN across all PS3 models, aiming to be an all-in-one plugin for the PS3 homebrew scene.

## Use cases
- run an ftp server on my ps3 to transfer files
- mount game isos over the network with netiso
- manage ps3 files from a browser with a web file manager
- use ntfs or exfat drives on a jailbroken ps3
- remotely shutdown or restart my ps3 from a phone
- automate tasks and debug ps3 memory from a pc
- emulate a gamepad on the ps3 remotely

## When to choose
- you run a PS3 with custom firmware (Cobra/Mamba) or PS3HEN and want an all-in-one management plugin
- you need FTP, web server, netiso, and file management on the PS3 in a single plugin
- you want remote control and automation of PS3 functions from a browser or PC

## When to avoid
- you have a stock (non-jailbroken) PS3 without CFW or PS3HEN
- you only need a simple FTP server and prefer a minimal plugin like original webMAN
- you are not working with PS3 hardware at all
