Open-FlyGo

Project Overview

Open-FlyGo — turn an old Windows PC into a complete NAS (Open version / desensitized). One panel overview: files, media, photos, sync, remote, containers. No hardware replacement, no Linux tinkering — one Windows PC is a complete NAS.

FlyGo is a private cloud data platform: turn idle computers/phones/hard drives into private cloud nodes, with the core being multi-directional sync of any folder + multiple replicas + access anywhere.

Key Features

• Node panel (main product): Web overview + service card wall + sync view + Web terminal + tray hosting, single exe
• Control plane: Device identity / activation code / subscription state machine / heartbeat (metadata only, never touches data plane)
• Web terminal: Independent crate, launched by the panel
• Product website: Static pages
• Panel overview: files, media, photos, sync, remote, containers

Target Audience

• Users who want to turn an old Windows PC into a NAS
• Users who need private cloud data sync and management
• Windows users who don't want to tinker with Linux

Quick Start

1. Download FlyGo-win-Setup.exe (installer, recommended) or FlyGo-win-Portable.zip (portable) from Releases
2. Install or extract and run
3. Open the panel for configuration and management

Core Advantages

• 1 EXE + 1 APK: Always deliver two files externally, hiding all internal complexity
• Building blocks: Connection via Tailscale, sync via Syncthing; self-development only where differentiated
• On-demand startup: Tens of MB resident, Docker/WSL/containers launched only when needed
• Local features free forever: Open-source software free, services charged; expiry only stops services, never local features or existing data

System Requirements

• OS: Windows
• Additional dependencies: No Rust toolchain needed (pre-built version); installer contains only flygo.exe and the Velopack updater
