File Numerus

File Numerus. Simple. Read-only. HTTP file browser.

The good 'old days of listing file directories for download. Easy to use. Responsive. Made for modern browsers.

Why?

http-server already exists, but I needed an application that was mobile friendly, easy to copy links and fast.

File Numerus is simple on purpose. That doesn't mean it can't be extended.

There may be more features in the future.

But at its core. It's meant to be an HTTP directory listing. No uploads. No folder creation. No modifications of any files or folders.
