Cloudreve

Cloudreve is a popular open-source self-hosted cloud storage platform with over 27,000 GitHub stars, designed to give you complete control over your file storage and sharing infrastructure. Built with Go for high performance and a modern React frontend, Cloudreve provides a polished cloud drive experience comparable to commercial services like Google Drive or Dropbox while keeping all data on your own server. The platform supports multiple storage backends, allowing you to leverage local storage, S3-compatible services, OneDrive, or Google Drive as storage providers behind a unified interface.

Common Use Cases

Individuals and families use Cloudreve as a private cloud drive to store photos, documents, and media files accessible from any device, replacing subscription-based cloud storage services. Small businesses deploy Cloudreve to create an internal file sharing platform where employees can collaborate on documents, share files with clients through secure links, and maintain version control over important files. Developers and IT teams use Cloudreve to centralize project assets, build artifacts, and documentation with fine-grained access controls and storage quota management. Privacy-conscious users choose Cloudreve to maintain complete ownership of their data, avoiding the scanning and data mining practices of commercial cloud storage providers.
