<p><strong>L</strong>ocal <strong>F</strong>ile <strong>S</strong>ystem <strong>A</strong>ccess (<strong>LFSA</strong>) is:</p>
<ul>
<li>a tiny web server to allow client side JS access to local file system</li>
<li>a buildling block for <strong>C</strong>lient <strong>S</strong>ide <strong>W</strong>eb <strong>A</strong>pps (<strong>CSWA</strong>)</li>
<li>a single Python file</li>
<li>released under <a href="https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/">CC0</a> license (public domain)</li>
</ul>
<p>Client Side Web Apps run solely on your device, they are not related to cloud solutions in any way: nobody can pull the plug on you.
CSWAs may use LFSA to keep data locally so that you could have complete control of your data.</p>
<p><a href="http://opengamestudio.org/pskov">PSKOV</a> static site generator is the first CSWA to use LFSA.</p>
<h2 id="downloadlfsa">Download LFSA</h2>
<p>Download <a href="../lfsa_1.0.0.py">lfsa_1.0.0.py</a>.</p>
<p>If you use Linux or macOS, you're all set.</p>
<h2 id="installpythonwindowsonly">Install Python (Windows only)</h2>

<p>Windows doesn't have Python installed by default, you have to <a href="https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/">install Python yourself</a> to be able to run LFSA.</p>
<p><strong>Note</strong>: the video depicts Python 2.3.4 installation under Windows 2000, use the latest Python available for your version of Windows.</p>
<h2 id="runlfsa">Run LFSA</h2>

<p>If you use Linux or macOS, run LFSA in terminal:</p>

</code></pre>

<pre><code>C:/path/to/Python/installation/python.exe C:/path/to/lfsa_1.0.0.py C:/path/to/dir
</code></pre>
<h2 id="durability">Durability</h2>
<p>As you noticed, LFSA can run on really old operating systems dating back to 2000. That's intentional: we care about users, so we want to cover as many users as possible.</p>
