Problem or Use Case

I'm testing BamBuddy since a few days now. The project feature could be very interesting. But for me it has a major problem: You have to download and upload files if you change something on the project. If I look at the directory structure on the file system, it doesn't correspondent to the View in BamBuddy:

This makes sense because you're managing this using a database.

Proposed Solution

My preferred solution would be, that folders and files from the File Manager view are presented in the same way on the real file system and changes (like adding and removing files) should be tracked by a file watcher. This makes the implementation a lot complexer, but this enables a much more comfortable option to work with the project files: sharing via network (especially SMB). There's simple docker container (dperson/samba), which is easy to install and can share folders over network:

This way I have all my project file in one location and can work directly with it. And thanks BamBuddy I have the project workflow, prints and all the stuff in one location. 😄

Alternatives Considered

Not realy.

Oh, maybe it describes the same. It seems I have used the wrong search terms. 😳 I think for both a rewrite of the internal file handling is needed. Right?
