Tools: D-Drive: Discord-Powered Cloud Storage With Unlimited Space

What I Built ## Features ## Self-hosting & Installation ## macOS / Linux (bash) ## Windows (PowerShell) ## My Experience with GitHub Copilot CLI ## Screenshots GitHub Copilot CLI Challenge Submission This is a submission for the GitHub Copilot CLI Challenge Using the GitHub Copilot CLI, I built D-Drive—a self-hostable storage platform that securely stores your files in Discord using AES-256 encryption. It uses chunking for large files and local encryption to ensure your data remains private and protected. GitHub Repository: https://github.com/jasonzli-DEV/D-Drive NPM Package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/d-drive-cli Familiar Google Drive UI – Navigate easily with an interface designed to feel like Google Drive, making the learning curve easier. Automated SFTP Backups – Schedule automatic backups from SFTP servers to create off-site copies of your development or Pterodactyl servers using configurable cron jobs. Recycle Bin Protection – Enable the recycle bin feature to safeguard against accidental deletions, with the option to disable it when needed. File Sharing & Permissions – Share files with other users and assign granular permissions, including view-only and edit access. Customizable Settings – Configure user-specific preferences through an intuitive settings interface, including task time zones, API keys, and encryption options. Built-in File Viewer – Preview videos, images, and PDFs directly in your browser without downloading—perfect for quickly identifying files. Public Link Sharing – Generate shareable public links with custom slugs to send media to anyone, even those without an account. Discord OAuth Authentication – Secure user authentication powered by Discord OAuth to protect your account and data. Developer-Friendly CLI – Upload files directly from your terminal using the npm package. Full API documentation is available in the GitHub repository. A live demo to test D-Drive is available at: https://d-drive-frontend-production.up.railway.app/ Note: The demo will be taken down after the challenge has ended. D-Drive is completely self-hosted to maintain your privacy. To install it, you'll need a macOS, Linux, or Windows computer and access to Discord to create a Discord bot. The installation script automatically sets up D-Drive along with required dependencies like Docker. Then navigate to http://localhost and complete the setup wizard. The GitHub Copilot CLI significantly streamlined my development workflow by assisting with code generation, debugging, dependency management, and documentation. Using it, I was able to finish this project in just 2 weeks. I highly recommend it to any developer looking to enhance their productivity and code quality.
