+# webdir
+
+![](https://img.shields.io/badge/written%20in-golang-blue)
+
+A web-based directory viewer.
+
+Host a read-only view of a directory, allowing users to browse the content.
+
+## Features
+
+- Windows Explorer-style theme
+- Browse subdirectories and download files
+- Thumbnail preview for image files and video files (with `ffmpeg` installed)
+
+The thumbnailer code can also be compiled as a standalone utility (`mkthumb`). This binary is not required to use `webdir`, but is shipped as an extra utility for convenience and testing.
+
+## Usage
+
+
+```
+
+Usage of ./webdir:
+  -Basedir string
+        Directory to serve
+  -CacheSize int
+        Number of thumbnails to cache in memory (default 100)
+  -Listen string
+        Address:port (default "127.0.0.1:8090")
+
+```
