A native Mac version of Snap2HTML for data recovery jobs
A data recovery shop owner wrote a Swift Mac app, with Claude Code, that saves a folder tree as a browsable listing and shares it with clients by expiring link.

The full story
The poster runs a data recovery business and relies on Snap2HTML, which is Windows only. Mac drives meant copying everything to a Windows machine just to make a file listing, so they wrote a native Mac version in Swift.
Instead of emailing a large HTML file, they generate a link that clients open in any browser to browse and search the folder tree. Each link has an expiry the poster chooses and can be revoked when a job closes.
