S3 File Manager

Does anyone know of a good file manager built on top of Laravel?

I'm working for a non-profit and we recently started using AWS S3 for our image/file storage and I would like a File Manager similar to Dropbox where we can Search by folder/file name, show thumbnails of the images and upload.

I know I could make this myself with spatie/media-manager, but I'm the only dev and don't have time at the moment. Wouldn't mind a paid for solution if available.

I've found this package that's pretty close (Missing Search function):

Simply looking for something with everything out-of-the-box and ready to go.

@daugaard47 If you have already started using AWS S3, then you have taken the good decision. Create buckets in AWS S3 and you are good to go.

Yeah that's fine for me... Working out of the AWS console, but the rest of the team is use to services like Dropbox or Google Drive etc...

Basically wanting to make a community bucket for the team where we can place all our docs, images etc.. into it and add it to my admin panel for easy access for all team members.

Looking for a UI similar to Dropbox so they still have all the features they know and love.

Actually found this front-end last night. Laravel-Media-Manager

It hooks up to plank/laravel-mediable

Haven't had time to test yet, but if good, I'll share my results. In the meantime if you or anyone else knows of a better solution I would appreciate any tips.
