Firefox 111 introduces 'File System Access API'

The File System Access API is an innovative tool within web browsers that allows web applications to access the user's file system directly. This API enables developers to create applications that interact seamlessly with files stored on the user's computer, eliminating the need to upload them to a server or cache. It enhances file management and promotes high interactivity, making it particularly beneficial for document editors, photo editing software, and other file-based applications. A significant aspect of this API is the user's control over which files and folders they wish to interact with, thereby ensuring enhanced security and privacy. The API also provides functionalities for saving changes to files and working with external storage, making it a flexible solution for modern web applications.
