Tiny File Manager

Tiny File Manager is a lightweight, browser-based file manager written in a single PHP file. It lets you upload, download, edit, copy, move, and delete files directly from a web interface without needing FTP or SSH access. The tool supports basic file operations, image thumbnails, code syntax highlighting, and a built-in text editor. It can be dropped into any PHP-enabled web server and works with both local and remote storage.

It includes user authentication, session management, and multi-language support. The interface is responsive and works on mobile devices. Tiny File Manager can handle archives (zip, tar, gz) and integrates with Google Drive and Dropbox for cloud storage. It also offers a search function and file permission management. The entire application is a single PHP file with no database required, making it easy to deploy for quick file access or backup file organization.

This tool is ideal for sysadmins and developers who need a simple, self-hosted file manager for managing backup files on a server. It is open source under the GPLv3 license and free to use. The project is maintained by Prasathmani on GitHub and has been downloaded thousands of times for its simplicity and low overhead.
