Storage & filesystems

How machine data is stored, and how to work with it from your own computer.

The filesystem API

A machine's files are served from the /api/repos/<owner>/<repo>/fs/* endpoints. Content is content-addressed and de-duplicated.

Files on your computer

Download individual files from the repository file browser or export a backup as an ext4 .img file. Upload files through the browser, or import an image to replace live. See Files & images.

The website, Node launcher, and file delivery service share one brintos.wasm filesystem client. The separate native mount client is retired.
