Web app Architecture

The application uses a headless architecture because the backend and frontend are separated. However, you can always build the frontend using Vite and add it as an HTMLResponse to the server code.

Current Features

1. JWT Account authorization
2. Real time capabilities - synchronization of file metadata with the client via SSE
3. Multipart file upload to the server
4. Selective compression based on file type analysis
5. Selective preview of files when possible
6. Downloading and deleting files
7. Adaptive UI design for PCs and phones

Planned Features

1. Advanced Preview (Markdown formatting, code highlighting)
2. Expanding the list of supported files for compression and preview
3. Offline Cache Viewing in PWA Mode
4. Some frontend changes for improved responsiveness
5. Backend optimizations, especially RAM consumption when uploading files
6. Files for deployment via Docker
7. Vulnerability fixes and code refactoring
8. File sharing
9. i18n interface localization
