SiFM — Simple File Manager

An open-source, single-file web file manager written in PHP. Browse, edit, upload, zip and manage files right from the browser. MIT licensed.

SiFM (Simple File Manager) is an open-source, web-based PHP file manager that manages files and folders through a simple interface. It is deliberately lightweight: one PHP file you drop on a server and use.

What it does

  • View, create, edit, upload, download and delete files and folders.
  • Delete safely — anything removed is parked in a trash you can restore from.
  • Copy, move, duplicate and rename, one item at a time or in bulk with a pattern.
  • Edit text files in a code editor with syntax highlighting, and preview images, PDFs, audio, video and markdown in the page.
  • Change permissions (chmod), make ZIP backups, extract archives.
  • Search by name or inside the file contents, and check PHP syntax from the interface.
  • Rotate, resize and convert images, and see the size, MIME type, dates and ownership of every file.
