Show HN: I created a minimalist file-browser web application

3 points

3 years ago

As I got tired of fighting with Jellyfin and SFTP for my media server, I decided to write a small web application that allows me to browse, manage, download and stream the files on my web server. It comes as a single-page application with a Preact frontend and a Go/Gin backend.

Creating this allowed me to get back into full-stack development, which was a bit tougher than expected after having taken a multi-year break from touching any frontend code.

You'll find the source code, binary releases and installation instructions on GitHub: https://github.com/zer0tonin/Mikochi

The official Docker image: https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/zer0tonin/mikochi/g...

And the helm chart: https://artifacthub.io/packages/helm/zer0tonin/mikochi

I also did a write-up about the project on my blog: https://alicegg.tech/2023/06/09/mikochi.html
