MooTools FileManager by Christoph Pojer

Christoph, one of MooTools\’ developers and creator of Styx, a PHP framework, created a MooTools based File Manager. I\’ve tried out his demos, and everything seems VERY slick. It has loads of features too.

Features (straight from the horses mouth)

  • Browse through Files and Folders on your Server
  • Rename, Delete, Move (Drag&Drop), Copy (Drag + hold CTRL) and Download Files
  • View detailed Previews of Images, Text-Files, Compressed-Files or Audio Content
  • Nice User Interface 😉
  • Upload Files via FancyUpload (integrated Feature)
  • Option to automatically resize big Images when uploading
  • Use it to select a File anywhere you need to specify one inside your Application\’s Backend
  • Use as a FileManager in TinyMCE
  • Provides your Client with the most possible convenience ( ;D )

The back-end is in PHP but you can port it to whatever language you\’re working with. The file manager is also released under the MIT-License. This is currently his RC1 (1st release candidate, for those not in the know). Head over to check out his demos!

Great job, Christoph!
