Score: 6.8/10 (Innovation: 5, Technical: 7, Documentation: 8, Utility: 7)

Locker is a self-hostable, open-source file storage and sharing platform that provides a Dropbox/Google Drive-like interface on top of your own storage backends (S3, R2, local filesystem). It's interesting because it combines a modern web stack with multi-provider storage abstraction, user quotas, sharing features, and an innovative virtual bash filesystem for programmatic file exploration.

Target audience: backend devs, devops, tech-savvy individuals
