## About

Point useFs() at a folder on your machine, or at the browser's own private storage. Your component gets everything inside it, and re-renders the moment a file is added, changed or deleted. No upload, no refresh, no second file dialog.

A path the previous scan did not have. Filters run first, so a pruned directory never even gets enumerated.
