Web-gui client of yet another file tranfer protocol, my 5th project of Computer Network course of FDU.

Build with flask and my own yaftp package.

yaftp package: https://github.com/ofey404/yaftp

Implementation detail

Build with flask.

Cardinal saved in sqlite3.

Maintain current path of each authentication on the server.

When request comes, login, then cd to that path, do operation then logout.

I didn't maintain a full session, for implementation is harder.
