TagSpaces is a comprehensive, versatile, and user-friendly application designed to help users organize and manage their local files with ease. This open-source software is free to use, and it doesn't involve any vendor lock-in. It leverages the use of tags to enable users to annotate, categorize and manage files in a more efficient and organized way.

Note-taking

With its advanced note-taking functionalities and some capabilities of to-do apps, TagSpaces goes beyond just file organization. It is available across multiple platforms, including Windows, Linux, macOS, and Android, making it a versatile and convenient tool for users who need to access their files on different devices and operating systems.

Web Clipper

TagSpaces also comes with a web clipper extension for Firefox, Edge, and Chrome, which allows users to easily collect online content in the form of local files. This feature is particularly helpful for individuals who need to research and save information from the internet for future reference.

File Manager

The software provides a convenient user interface for browsing, viewing, and managing files and folders. It supports two ways for tagging files, making it easy for users to choose the one that they find more convenient. One way is by embedding the tags directly in the name of the file, while the other uses sidecar files for persisting the tags.

The search functionality in TagSpaces is powerful and user-friendly, supporting fuzzy functionality and allowing users to filter their locations for files and folders containing one or more tags. Additionally, TagSpaces comes with a media player, a browser for local content, and a to-do management feature.

Manage AWS S3 Files

Turn S3 a compliant object storage into an online file browserIn order to work collaboratively on the same files with family members or co-workers, the Pro version supports the connection of cloud object storage as TagSpaces' locations. Such storage is offered by cloud provider like Amazon AWS or Wasabi.

You can also host an object storage privately (e.g. on your NAS) with the help of open source projects like MinIO.


By doing so, you are getting a full-fledged file organizer and browser in the Cloud, so you do not have to download files in order to preview, edit or annotate them.

  • Connect AWS S3 or Wasabi buckets as locations
  • Connect self-hosted (e.g. on your NAS) MinIO folders as locations
  • Browse object storage buckets in TagSpaces

  • Edit text files directly in the buckets
  • Upload files with simple drag and drop actions
