DocWebHub is a Go desktop app that turns a neighborhood folder right into a read-only web site you may open on the identical machine or over a LAN. Information keep on disk; nothing is uploaded to a cloud service.
The motivation is easy: sharing a blended folder shouldn’t require a document-management system, cloud syncing, or a distinct viewer on each recipient’s machine. DocWebHub focuses on native shopping and previews somewhat than collaborative modifying.
Shared folders, static file servers, and cloud drives already deal with distribution nicely. DocWebHub targets a narrower workflow: preserve the folder native, serve it read-only, and supply bundled offline previews within the browser. Supported previews embody:
- Workplace paperwork, together with legacy
.doc,.xls, and.ppt - PDF, Markdown, photographs, audio/video, and supply code
- DWG/DXF drawings with pan, zoom, layer visibility, and PDF export
You may optionally set a password. This supplies entry management, not site visitors encryption. The server may bind to localhost when you don’t want LAN publicity.
Builds can be found for macOS, Home windows, and Linux, together with ARM. The venture is dual-licensed below AGPL-3.0 and a business license.
This isn’t a substitute for a full collaboration or document-management stack. I’d welcome suggestions from the Go neighborhood, particularly on Linux packaging, the desktop expertise, and workflows the place native doc previews can be helpful.
