Imagine you have a toy box. But instead of keeping it just at home, itโ€™s stored in a magical, super safe cloud where you can reach it from anywhere. This app is like that magical toy box โ€“ it remembers how your toys (files) are arranged in folders, even if you move them between your computer and your phone.

๐Ÿงจ The problem:

Autonomi has no concept of folders or file structure. Files are just... there. Thatโ€™s confusing and unusable for regular people.

๐Ÿ’ก The solution:

A cross-platform file manager (built with MAUI Blazor Hybrid) that creates a virtual file system by:

  • Saving folder structure in a local database

  • Tracking which files are where in the network

  • Syncing content between devices (PC โ†” Android)

  • Real-time notifications

๐Ÿ’ฌ Most decentralized systems forget about UX. This app fixes that.


๐ŸŒฑ Vision & Scalability

  • ๐Ÿ” Full folder sync (like Dropbox โ€“ but decentralized)

  • ๐Ÿค– AI-assisted file categorization

  • ๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธ File previews for media & docs

  • ๐Ÿ” Search by content & tags

  • โ˜๏ธ File sharing across users via Autonomi

  • ๐Ÿท๏ธ Tag-based organization alongside folders โ€“ assign multiple tags to a file for more flexible structure

  • ๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธ In-app preview for images, PDFs, and videos โ€“ view content without downloading it

  • ๐Ÿ“ด Offline mode โ€“ queue uploads/downloads and sync when reconnected

  • ๐ŸŒ Optional IPFS integration โ€“ enable one-click sharing of selected files via public IPFS gateways for external access outside Autonomi

๐ŸŽฏ Goal: to become a daily-use decentralized file manager โ€“ simple enough for grandma, powerful enough for devops engineers.
