Period.** But "best" means different things to different people, and making Filestash modular is the only sane model to accomplish that. Anything that isn't a fundamental truth of the universe and might spark a debate belongs in a plugin. This modularity is made possible by the magic of programming interfaces. For example, if you want a [Dropbox-like frontend for FTP](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9224), you will find out the [FTP plugin](https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash/tree/master/server/plugin/plg_backend_ftp) simply implements this interface: ```go type IBackend interface { Ls(path string) ([]os.FileInfo, error) // list files in a folder Cat(path string) (io.ReadCloser, error) // download a file Mkdir(path string) error // create a folder Rm(path string) error // remove something Mv(from string, to string) error // rename something Save(path string, file io.Reader) error // save a file Touch(path string) error // create a file // I have omitted 2 other methods, a first one to enable connections reuse and // another one to declare what should the login form be like. } ``` There are interfaces you can implement for every key component of Filestash: from storage, to authentication, authorisation, custom apps, search, thumbnailing, frontend patches, middleware, endpoint creation and a [few others](https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash/blob/master/server/common/plugin.go). To see what's currently installed in your instance, head over to [/about](https://demo.filestash.app/about). The inventory of plugins is [documented here](https://www.filestash.app/docs/plugin/). # Roadmap There are 2 major pieces of work currently underway:
  1. Making Filestash able to open virtually anything. Thanks to plugin, we're adding support for files your browser has never heard of, from astrophysics to embroidery patterns. Concretly we have added support for:
  2. Getting to v1.0. Filestash is already rock solid, it has been in active development for over 8 years. But the bar for v1.0 will be reached when Filestash is objectively better than Dropbox, Google Drive, and Box by every single measurable metric we care about. That's the mission.
