Wtf does this do

File Securer, called FS by its author, is a console application written in Python for storing personal files securely. It has no graphical interface: you type commands into a terminal to use it. The README is written in Russian and is quite short, so this explanation covers everything it states. To use the tool, you first create a profile with the command /reg, then log in with /login. A /help command exists to list the other available commands, though the author notes in the README that they have not written out that list yet. The program organizes files into three folders: a Data folder for storing already encrypted files, an Enc folder where you place files you want encrypted, and a Dec folder where decrypted files are placed after they come out. The stated features are user registration, login authorization, cryptography, and what the author calls full encryption of both files and passwords. No specific encryption algorithm, library, or security details are mentioned in the README, so it is not possible to say how strong or well tested this protection actually is. The project is at an early version, labeled b0.1.1 as of July 12, 2026, and has essentially no adoption yet. This looks like a personal or learning project by a solo developer rather than a polished, production ready tool, and the README itself is minimal, with no installation instructions, dependency list, or license information provided.
