Idea: File Manager within FreedomBox

I’ve actually been searching for a way to access the files on my FreedomBox and I was a little disappointed when that I found out that wasn’t a feature yet. But, hearing this is awesome news! Yes, I would love a file manager that I could access through plinth! If it’s up to us for feature requests, I’d like the UI to handle basic things like upload/download/copy/paste/delete. Good tier is if it can restrict file access for other users. And gold tier is if it can handle external storage mediums. In my use case, I’m going to use Open VPN to pull files for school at school from a 2t mechanical drive. When it comes to development speed, whatever your comfortable with. I’ll drop oneDrive when you roll out the module. FreedomBox has become my server Swiss army knife. I absolutely love it so far! Keep up the good work y’all!
