Hey everyone!
I just refined and made public an old project I made in a week a while ago! It's a file explorer that shows you the size of folders... Right in your web browser! (Because file explorers don't do it by default)

Everything is local only, nothing goes to any server and you just need to go to the site to try it!

https://explorer.xn--3s8h30f.ws/

Among the features, you can view the proportion of storage used by your files and folders, view/play videos, audios, images and text files, install the site as an app, use it offline...

Check it out if you want! Please give me some feedback too, thanks! It's #opensource ! Enjoy! :blobcatheart:

Just adding a direct link to the source code:

I notice there is no mention of a license, so this is not actually open source.

@helloyanis@furries.club - If you want it to be truly open source you need to license it, f.e. as MIT or GPLv3.

From most permissive to least permissive:

@anamethatisnt @schnurrito Good catch, I did not include a licence, now it's MIT licensed!

Yay, Firefox optimised

[–] helloyanis@furries.club 11 points 1 week ago (2 children)

@First_Thunder More like "Chromium takes ~2x longer to process folder uploads (before I can even read the files)", and "Chromium drops all files without the subfolders when you drop a folder on a page (it's just like if you uploaded all the files from inside all the folders), although it still works fine when you use the upload button for some reason"

So yeah, firefox optimized because Firefox implements the features better haha
