denkfabrik-li ed82d748ea Run the auth and settings screens through the translator
use-translation.ts states the rule: every user-facing string in a
component must go through t(). Five screens never called it at all --
forgot-password, reset-password, confirm-password, verify-email and
settings/password had zero occurrences of useTranslation -- so a client
who had chosen Spanish reset their password in English, from the browser
tab down to the submit button. settings/profile had the hook but used it
for two strings, leaving its heading, labels and the whole
email-verification notice hardcoded around them.

The password page also carried a second, smaller mistake the miss was
hiding: its <Head> title said "Profile settings", copied from the
profile page, so the tab named the wrong screen in every language.
It says "Password settings" now, the wording its own breadcrumb and
the sibling "Notification settings" title already use.

Every string on the six screens goes through t() now. The two
module-level breadcrumb arrays moved inside their components to reach
the hook -- the shape two-factor, notifications and the other settings
pages already have. Where a key already exists in the catalogs (Email
address, Password, Confirm password, New password, Log out and friends,
shared with the login screen) the existing translations light up
immediately; the keys new to the catalogs fall back to their English
text, exactly what those lines rendered before, until the locales pick
them up.

TranslationUsageTest is the guard, a source scan like
DateFormattingUsageTest and for the same reason: no JavaScript test
runner gates this class of miss. It fails on any page under pages/auth
or pages/settings that never uses the hook -- those screens always carry
copy of their own, so a page there without it is a page somebody forgot
-- and on any literal <Head title="..."> anywhere, which is both a
user-facing string and where the copy-paste title above lived. Both
scans go red on the tree without this change: five pages and six
literal titles.

ProjectSend

Share files with your clients, from your own server.

License: GPL v2 or later PHP 8.4+ Self-hosted


ProjectSend is a self-hosted application for getting files to the people you work with. You upload what you want to send, choose exactly who can see it, and each client signs in to their own private page to download it.

No public link passed around by email, no third-party service holding your clients' documents, no per-seat pricing. It runs on your server, and the files stay there.

What it does

For the people you send to

  • A private area per client, showing only what has been shared with them
  • Sign in with an email address, with optional two-factor authentication
  • Search, filter and sort their files; download one, several as a zip, or a whole folder
  • Optional comments on a file, so questions live next to the thing they are about
  • Email notifications when something new arrives, in their own language

For you

  • Resumable uploads that survive a dropped connection, so large files actually arrive
  • Organise with folders, categories and client groups
  • Share with one client, a whole group, or publicly — and set an expiry date or a download limit
  • Thumbnails and previews for images and documents
  • Storage quotas per client, and custom fields for the details you need to keep on them
  • A full activity log and download history: who got what, and when

For the installation

  • Roles and permissions for your own team, so an uploader is not an administrator
  • Sign-in the way you already work: LDAP, social sign-in, or plain email and password
  • Themes for the client-facing pages and for outgoing email
  • 16 languages
  • A REST API with scoped tokens and generated OpenAPI docs
  • Privacy controls, including GDPR-grade account erasure with a grace period
  • Local disk, S3-compatible storage, or Google Cloud Storage

Your library — folders, categories, and who each file is shared with.

What your client sees — only their files, nothing else.

Getting started

With Docker — the quickest path, and the one we recommend. Nothing to build: the published image ships with its dependencies and its frontend already compiled.

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/projectsend/projectsend/main/docker/production/compose.example.yaml
# edit the passwords and APP_URL in it, then:
docker compose -f compose.example.yaml up -d

Open APP_URL and the first thing you see is a setup screen that creates your administrator account — or uncomment ADMIN_EMAIL and ADMIN_PASSWORD in the file first, with a password of your own, and it is created for you.

Before you put real files in it, read DOCKER.md — where your database and uploads actually live, how to move them onto paths you chose, and how to back them up so an upgrade can't take them with it.

Without Docker — for servers where it isn't an option, install from a release zip. INSTALL.md covers requirements, .env, nginx, the background worker and cron, updating and troubleshooting. You do not need Composer or npm on the server; the zip ships ready to run.

Already running it? UPDATE.md is how you move to a new version — one command on Docker, one script on your own server, and what to check afterwards either way.

Want to work on ProjectSend itself? Cloning the repository gets you a development copy, not an installation: the dependencies and the compiled frontend are deliberately not in git, so a clone needs Composer and npm before it runs. CONTRIBUTING.md has the sequence, and it is short.

Coming from ProjectSend Legacy?

The previous generation of ProjectSend lives on at projectsend/legacy. This is a rebuild rather than an upgrade, so moving across is an import rather than an update — install fresh, then bring your old site into it with the migration tool: accounts, clients, groups, categories, folders, files and history.

It never writes to your old install, and any run can be undone with a single command. MIGRATING-FROM-V1.md explains what comes across, the two routes (same machine, or a portable export from a server you can't reach), and the one change your clients will notice: they sign in with their email address now, using the same password.

Contributing

Bug reports, translations and pull requests are all welcome — see CONTRIBUTING.md for how to set up a development copy, what the checks are, and the contributor agreement.
