Twake Drive

COLLAB
Velocity5.0

Open source collaborative file storage and sharing platform

Twake Drive is turning its file picker into a reusable component other apps can embed.

file-storagefile-pickersharingopen-sourcebeta-releases
◆Current state
Twake Drive ships beta releases every few weeks. Most of the work goes into the embeddable File Picker: single-selection mode, thumbnail links, themes, double-click pick and ready-state messages. Alongside it come reusable file-type and date filters and federated-sharing fixes. It has also been cutting features, removing encrypted-file support and the Harvest integration.
◆Where it's heading
The focus is making Drive a file layer other apps call through the picker, while simplifying the core by removing lesser-used features. Patch betas like 1.107.1 fix layout details.
◆Prediction
Expect 1.107 to stabilize and further picker and filter work in 1.108; more feature removals are plausible given the recent pattern.
