Tiny File Manager

Tiny File Manager is a web‑based file manager implemented as a single PHP script that can be placed in any server directory to provide upload, download, edit, preview and organization of files and folders through a browser. It requires PHP 5.5+ and optional extensions such as fileinfo, iconv, zip, tar and mbstring, but does not need a database or additional dependencies. Users can be created with individual root folders, and authentication is handled via password hashes configurable in the script.

The interface includes drag‑and‑drop and AJAX uploads, URL‑based imports, and batch operations for copying, moving, compressing and extracting archives in zip or tar format. Built‑in code editing uses the Cloud9 IDE with syntax highlighting for over 150 languages, while document and media previews are provided for common formats. A searchable, responsive layout works on desktop and mobile devices, and the system supports more than 35 languages via a translation file.

Security features comprise CSRF protection, IP blacklisting/whitelisting, and configurable user permissions. The project is open source under GPL‑3.0, self‑hostable, free of subscription, and maintained as a stable, lightweight solution for managing files on a web server.
