renar v0.1.0
sandbox

Touch the
real thing.

One shared instance of the shipped binary, serving a demo tree. No signup, no guided tour — the same pages the screenshots on this site came from, wiped back to a clean state on a timer. What you break, the next reset unbreaks.

shared · reset on a timer

demo.renar.asklera.fr — sign in as demo / renar-demo-0.1.0. The account is public by design and holds nothing.

What to expect, honestly:

It is shared

Anyone may be walking the same tree at the same time. You will see their edits the way you would see a colleague's — live, if you enable refresh.

It resets

About every fifteen minutes, the demo root is wiped to its seeded state and sessions die. Nothing you store there survives; nothing you store there should be secret.

It is the real binary

Not a canned replica — the same artifact the release channel ships, with the demo posture declared. If it breaks, that is a bug we want to know about.

What to try

a ten-minute tour
  1. Delete something, restore it. Delete a file from the listing, open /trash, restore it. Deletes are reversible by design — and the ledger row survives the restore.
  2. Watch a tree change. Enable refresh on the demo listing and leave it open; another visitor's edit arrives live over SSE while the admission budget keeps the stream honest.
  3. Meet the JSON twins. The same pages you are browsing answer as JSON for scripts — try /status?format=json, /search?q=renar, or /metrics while signed in.
  4. Read the engine's self-declaration. /status shows edition, licensing state, posture and live ceilings; /posture shows every knob beside its tier preset. The two pages an auditor asks for, both public to the signed-in account.
  5. Mint a share. Open the /shares page and mint a link to a subtree — the mint form owes step-up, so re-prove when asked — then open it in a private window: no account, read-only, expiring. That is the whole mechanism: the secret is the capability, and the same page lists and revokes what you minted.
  6. Mount it. The demo answers WebDAV like any install:
console — the demo tree, mounted$ rclone lsd :webdav,url=https://demo.renar.asklera.fr/dav/demo/,vendor=other \
      :webdav: --webdav-user demo --webdav-pass "$(rclone obscure 'renar-demo-0.1.0')"

# or in gnome files / windows explorer:
#   davs://demo.renar.asklera.fr/dav/demo/

A mounted editor's writes land in the same trash, history and ledger as the browser's — mount it, save a file, then check the versions and the trash page.
