Surfer

Surfer provides a lightweight, self‑hosted static file server that includes a built‑in web interface for browsing, uploading, and organizing files. It serves files over HTTP without requiring additional configuration, making it suitable for quickly sharing directories or hosting static assets from a personal or small‑scale environment.

The web UI lets users navigate the directory tree, view file metadata, and perform basic file management actions such as creating folders, moving items, and deleting resources. Because the interface runs in the browser, no special client software is needed; any modern web browser can be used to interact with the server.

The project is released under the MIT license, is free to use without a subscription, and is maintained as a stable, open‑source utility. Its minimalistic design focuses on simplicity and ease of deployment for users who need a straightforward way to serve and manage static files on their own hardware.
