AmazeFileUtilities ★ 521 57 APPLICATION

This repository contains the Amaze File Utilities Android application, an open-source file management utility suite with built-in media players. The app provides comprehensive file browsing, storage analysis (duplicate, large, hidden, junk files), image/video/audio playback, image editing, document viewing (PDF, EPUB, DOCX), and peer-to-peer file transfer via Wi-Fi Direct. It also includes a cloud streaming server for Chromecast support. The architecture follows the standard Android MVVM pattern with Jetpack components (ViewModel, LiveData, Room, Navigation), and uses a foreground service for audio playback. The codebase is primarily Kotlin with some legacy Java, and is built with two product flavors: one for the Play Store (with billing and ML Kit) and one for F-Droid (without those features). The app demonstrates solid engineering with reusable abstractions like `AbstractMediaFilesAdapter`, `CloudStreamer`, and `FixedSizePriorityQueue`, though the central `FilesViewModel` is overly large (2000+ lines) and some deprecated Android APIs remain in use. The project is actively maintained with recent commits and zero Dependabot alerts.
