Files – Single-file photo gallery and file manager • Hacker News Board

I needed this for hosting an archive of documents and images that I didn't want to sort and create html pages for. Without something like this, I'd get an ugly directory view that's different browser by browser.

This solves the problem and it looks elegant. Great work.

Why not?

Because it’s about *single* files

Sex sells, as always.

As somebody who recently spent two weekends trying to figure out a self hosted photo solution that actually for my needs and was easy to install, this looks fantastic.

(I ended up using PhotoView, which works fine, but this looks like it might have been better.)

It doesn't mean they do all development in a single file.
