VazeIntroduction
What Vaze is and how to start using it
Vaze is a self-hosted, local-first file storage and hosting service. It runs as a single Docker container on your own server or home network, and gives you:
- Full file & folder management — create, rename, move, and delete files and folders from a clean web dashboard.
- Simple uploads — drag-and-drop files and folders in the browser.
- Export & download — download individual files or entire folders as a zip archive.
- Public hosting URLs — every uploaded file gets a stable URL you can embed or share.
- API keys — generate and manage API keys from the dashboard to access your storage from other applications.
- REST API & SDK — use Vaze as a file hosting backend through simple RESTful endpoints or the official TypeScript SDK.
