A lightweight, self-hosted file storage and sharing server built with Go and Fiber.

- 🌐 Shared file support (public listing)
- 🗑️ File deletion
- 🧠 Filename conflict resolution (e.g., file(1).txt)
- 📊 SQLite-based metadata and user storage

- 🧠 Auto-generated .env file with required flags and JWT secret
- 🎛️ Admin-only user management
- 🗂️ Upload multiple files
- 🛑 Graceful shutdown
- 📱 Minimal Web UI
- 🔍 Search through uploaded or shared files by filename using query parameters
