A project to bring the Finder experience to the web.

Screenshot

It is part of a larger project to store information in a structured way:

On a high level, finder takes a info directory and generates a static website that served via Cloudflare Pages. It also procceses the media directory and generates thumbnails sprites for all directories and images, and uploads them to Cloudflare R2 Storage.

On a lower level, finder walks the info directory, using go routines to process each YAML file concurrently. While doing so, it keeps track of all "connections" between files, to use later in go templates.

Local development

Use Make to build the static site locally:

export INPUT_INFO=/<path-to-info-directory>/info
export INPUT_MEDIA=/<path-to-media-directory>/media
export INPUT_STATIC=static
export INPUT_OUTPUT=output

make serve

Then press b that will open URL like this https://127.0.0.1:8788/ in your browser.
