XFile Manager is a minimal, clean, and fast Qt-based file explorer, purpose-built for structured environments like organizations, schools, shared offices, or kiosks—where end-users are not meant to modify files, but only view or explore them.
No clutter, no unnecessary options. Just a smooth, efficient interface for safe file navigation.
🔒 Note: This version intentionally does not include Create/Update/Delete (CRUD) operations for safety and control. Future versions may offer controlled CRUD options via admin modes or permissions.
- 🧭 Explore-Only Navigation – Navigate through files and directories quickly and safely.
- 🔍 Metadata Display – See file size, type, and last modified date.
- 🖼️ Icon-Based Interface – Clean icons for easy recognition and intuitive UI.
- 💻 Cross-Platform – Works on Windows. (Linux, macOS support coming soon)
- 🚫 No File Editing – Ideal for shared or monitored environments where write access is restricted.
- 🏗️ Qt Framework (Qt 5 or 6)
- 🛠️ C++ Compiler (e.g., GCC, MinGW)
