Imagine having your very own Swiss Army knife for file conversions right in your home lab. That’s exactly what HRConvert2 is all about— an all-in-one, self-hosted file conversion server and sharing tool. This nifty piece of software doesn’t just talk the talk; it walks the walk, supporting a whopping 445 file formats and available in 13 languages, y'all. HRConvert2 goes above and beyond with its minimalistic drag-and-drop interface, allowing users of all types to convert files without fuss. You don’t need to worry about your data going anywhere—every conversion happens locally on your home server. And, it’s as secure as Fort Knox; the codebase has been open-source for years, ensuring that it's both secure and performant. Ever had a bunch of PDFs and images you wanted to snag some text from? HRConvert2 has got your back with its built-in Optical Character Recognition (OCR), making it a cinch to pull text from various document formats. No more messing about with multiple tools just to get a simple task done. And let’s talk about safety. The tool can automatically scan files for viruses in the background using ClamAV. Heck, you can even run on-demand scans if you’re feeling a bit paranoid. For the sharers among us, HRConvert2 allows you to generate temporary links to share files securely. Customization? Oh, it’s got that in spades. There is built-in multi-language support and you can switch between 13 languages simply by appending `?language=en` to the URL. No extra downloads, no fuss. For a bit of flavor, choose between four color schemes pre-configured in the `config.php` file. Plus, it plays well with others. It installs neatly alongside other popular software, like WordPress, and doesn’t make any external connections. It uses locally installed JavaScript with no bulky frameworks or Google Fonts, and best of all, no annoying tracking or analytics. HRConvert2 supports a dizzying array of formats. Need to convert a ZIP to a TAR or a JPEG to a PDF? No problem. It even handles obscure formats you probably didn't know existed. From audio and video to 3D models and subtitle files, HRConvert2 has got it covered. For the tinkerers out there, the compact codebase is transparent and ripe for customization. No databases, no cookies, no cache files. It's as pure as it gets. And as if that wasn't cool enough, the entire project is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0—keeping it all free as in freedom. So if you’re looking to beef up your homelab with a versatile, secure, and downright handy utility, HRConvert2 is the way to go.
