This project is not under active development, i.e., new features won't be created and deep bugs might be hard to be fixed. A small set of developers is taking care of keeping it building and fixing small issues.

If you're interested in becoming a maintainer of this project, please let us know through this issue and start contributing. It would be awesome for the more than 3000 people that starred this project!

Do you need help maintaining the Go side or the web client side more?

Hey, I'll see if I can carve up some time to help out. I had a few commits way back when this was starting out but haven't touched the source in a while.

If you want to make me a maintainer I can dig through the issues and get rid of the noise of people who don't understand how web or golang or whatever works...

@ericvolp12 awesome that you want to contribute! You can start by looking at the issues and creating PRs. We'll only give push access to someone who has a history on this repository. You can start building one right now! 😃

Hey @hacdias it'd be nice if I had the permissions required to close or label issues as I dig through the backlog. I do have a history of commits to the project for the record.

You can comment on those you are interested to fix, and we will close or relabel them correspondingly. Indeed, we rarely take actions without double approval. That is, even if an issue is to be closed, we comment there to ensure that it is solved. Then, if no reply is received in around a week, it is closed. However, if the issue is old, and no maintainer replied to it previously, we wait longer as the OP might have forgotten about it and some more time might be needed to come back.

Nonetheless, ATM we can read and respond to issues/questions, but new features won't be created and deep bugs might be hard to be fixed. So, it'd be great if you contributed to these topics.

I would like to help, I haven't developed with Go or Vue but I do have full stack experience that I can try to help with. After looking through the issue log is there any priority or order that you would want things worked on?

@dtwilliams10 hello! Thanks 😄 hope you contribute. There's no special order. Just bugs >>>> features.

I can help as well for the frontend part! I have some commit with minor fixes! So sad because the tool is so good!

@dtwilliams10, as @hacdias suggested, bugs have the highest priority. However, since you are not familiar with neither the languages nor the code, triaging can help you. With triaging I mean trying to reproduce issues reported by users. Doing so will let you gain insight into the build procedure and into the wide use space. Of course, it is also useful for us, in order to better label the issues. If you do so, please reply in the corresponding issue telling if you could reproduce it or, in case you couldn't, asking for additional info.

Also, please read https://github.com/filebrowser/community.

@hugomassing looking forward for those fixes ;)

The current master is stable. Probably new features won't be added by myself. Only fixes if I have time. I'd like to welcome everyone to contribute to this project.

Hey @jtnote! That'd be awesome! You can look at the issues and see if there's something you'd like to work on. Bug fixes must be prioritized at the moment. Unfortunately, I have no time to work on this at the moment :(

I have used filebrowser for a while and found that the support on the mobile side is not optimized. At present, I personally try to develop filebrowser ios and Android client with flutter. Is there any plan to develop it?

@Liberxue unfortunately there are no plans to develop further features for File Browser due to the everything that's described on this issue. However, if you'd like to contribute, it'd be awesome if you did! :D

Ok, I am trying to finish filebrowser-Flutter😄
Now I am going to submit design documents development, if necessary can be included in the official repository, or participate in UI design and development

It's been over a year without active maintenance on this repository and the issue and PR list is always getting bigger and bigger. I decided to, unfortunately, close the issues and the PRs and archive the repo and mark it as unmaintained.

Sadly, I don't have the bandwidth to keep this project alive. And no one has decided to do so either. Unfortunately I've seen this happening on other open source projects, but if anyone in the future wants to maintain this project, I will handover the organization to that person.

I don't want to keep this repository looking as if it was going to be maintained soon and give false expectation to users. That's another reason.

I will do this during tomorrow.

I will make sure I push a release with the last merged PRs before closing everything else.

Just released 2.1.0 with the last changes I merged. I'm now going to archive this repository. If, in the future, anyone wants to take over this project, just ping me. It's time to say goodbye to the project I started 5 years ago! Thanks everyone for their contributions and I hope you all understand.

Edit.: feel free to fork the project!
