About
Share files through links that expire. Upload, set a download limit or a deadline, hand out the link. No accounts for the recipients.
Notes
Temporary file sharing with expiring links and download limits — a WeTransfer-style dropbox under your own domain.
One-click install: the admin account and all server settings are seeded automatically on first boot, so there is NO manual setup wizard. Both the configuration and the uploaded files are stored on persistent volumes, so they survive container updates and rebuilds.
Sign in with the admin username and password you set below, then create share links from the admin panel.
