What Cloudreve actually does
Cloudreve is a self-hosted file management and sharing platform written in Go. It enables you to organise, upload, and distribute files through a web interface while connecting to multiple underlying storage providers. The project is distributed under the GPL-3.0 licence.
Best fit: It suits individuals or teams needing a centralised, web-accessible repository that can interface with various external cloud storage buckets or local disks.
Worth knowing: You should check how well its specific permission models and sharing controls align with your security requirements, as file-sharing systems often require careful access configuration.
Deployment notes
Because it is distributed as a Go binary and containerised with Docker, you will typically need to configure persistent volumes for your data and place it behind a reverse proxy to handle TLS termination.
