This HTML5 file browser allows to browse and share files in a public server directory. Unlike some other solutions out there, this file browser does not depend on any server-side code. Instead, directory listings are used to parse the list of available files.
This program comes with a .htaccess file that enables directory listings for the files/ directory. Simply upload this file browser to any directory on your server and you are done.
For nginx, auto-indexing has to be turned on for the /files/ directory:
location /somedir/files/ {
autoindex on;
}
For testing purposes or to share files in a LAN, Python can be used. Run python -m http.server 8080 (or python2 -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080 if your system is horribly outdated) from within this directory (the directory where README.md can be found) and you are done.
