I just got the new rclone version v1.74.0. It got a new gui command (rclone gui) that runs a web based gui. Its awesome. You can interact with all kinds of storage in it and edit all of your local configs. Since it is web based, you can also use the gui on a remote server and simply tunnel the port via ssh to your local machine.

Rclone is a command line program to manage files on cloud storage.

Zellij is a terminal multiplexer and has a browser web view without saying it in the first line of the web site ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Wait I didn't know about the browser web view part

That's pretty cool. Just like Textual.

Rclone is super sweet. I use it to backup Google Drive volumes, automatically converting the proprietary web-doc formats to OpenDoc files. It's powerful & awesome!

I can also recommend rclone ncdu if you haven't tried that before.

Scans through and indexes the directory/files and gives you an interactive ncdu-like interface, so you can browse files and directories and easily see what takes up space.

The web ui was first added in 2019. Sounds like it was just slightly reworked and bundled into the main Rclone binary in a way that's easier to use now.

I thought it already had one... what did I use before? Was there a separate package?

recline is much more than a cli utility. If you run rclone as a daemon (I use the "serve S3" comand to encrypt my backups before sending them to the cloud), it's nice to have some sort of dashboard where you can monitor what's going on.
