Description
While there are several robust file managers available, many do not adhere to Material Design principles. Even those that claim to follow Material Design often exhibit various minor design imperfections, such as issues with layout, alignment, padding, icons, and fonts, which can create discomfort for users like me, though these flaws might not bother everyone enough to seek out a solution. This dissatisfaction ultimately led me to develop my own file manager. Additionally, numerous popular and trustworthy file managers are closed-source, and while I occasionally use them to access and modify files requiring root permissions, I find myself feeling uneasy about granting any closed-source application such extensive access to my device. After all, this device contains a wealth of personal information, and the level of trust is solely based on the developers' intentions. Therefore, it's crucial to prioritize transparency when it comes to access rights within applications.
Description
Polo is a contemporary and efficient file management application for Linux, developed using Vala, that features various layouts including single, dual, and quad panes, each capable of hosting multiple tabs. This file manager allows users to create, extract, and navigate archives seamlessly, while also offering integration with cloud storage services. Additionally, Polo facilitates the operation and management of KVM images, allows for the editing of PDF and image files, and supports booting ISO files in a KVM environment or writing them to USB drives. Each pane includes multiple tabs, and users can toggle an embedded terminal with the F4 key for enhanced functionality. When devices are connected, a popup displays them along with options for mounting and unmounting, and the application can handle LUKS encrypted devices, offering locking and unlocking capabilities. Users can browse archives like regular folders and create them in various formats, taking advantage of advanced compression settings for efficient storage. Moreover, Polo's user-friendly interface, combined with its robust features, makes it a versatile tool for both casual and advanced users looking to manage files with ease and efficiency.
