ARQ Tools / FileNest

Developer tooling where package behavior, documentation, examples, and platform QA are developed as one product surface.

ARQ Tools is a growing developer-tools home; FileNest is its current Expo/React Native file-workflow package covering picking, validation, managed storage, sharing, deletion, structured errors, recipes, security notes, and documentation. The work is still active, so the portfolio presents implemented package/docs/QA evidence without calling the wider toolset complete.

01Context

Reusable tooling should remove repetitive product work without hiding platform boundaries.

FileNest came from repeated local file workflows in mobile products. Instead of copying picker, validation, storage, sharing, and deletion logic between apps, the work is being extracted into a focused package with explicit constraints.

02Developer experience

The documentation is part of the implementation, not a marketing layer added afterward.

The docs cover installation, concepts, picking, storing, validation, sharing, deleting, API reference, troubleshooting, security, recipes, changelog, build log, roadmap, and example workflows around the actual package surface.

03Boundaries

FileNest stays deliberately narrow while the wider ARQ Tools system is still being built.

It does not pretend to be cloud storage, OCR, encryption, or an AI file manager. FileNest focuses on predictable local file workflows for Expo and React Native, while other ARQ Tools ideas remain separate work rather than being implied as complete.

04Verification

Current evidence is package behavior and platform QA, not a finished ecosystem claim.

Android multi-pick and core example flows have been manually verified, package validation and tests cover the implementation surface, and Android multi-share remains an explicit platform limitation. iOS-specific QA and broader ARQ Tools completion stay separate pending work.
