why it matters
Provider consoles are powerful, but object work often needs a smaller surface.
S3Panel is designed for the repeatable parts of Hetzner Object Storage work: finding files, checking folder growth, sharing a private object, and acting on selected objects without changing the whole storage architecture.
Keep storage ownership clear
Original files stay in Hetzner Object Storage. S3Panel is the control surface for browse, search, and selected operations.
Make large buckets easier to inspect
Manifest-backed search and folder stats help teams avoid blind paging through provider lists.
Reduce public-access shortcuts
Temporary links let teams share selected files without making buckets or prefixes public by default.
