Deploy XBackBone in one click installation.
Self-hosted lightweight file and screenshot sharing server with full ShareX, ScreenCloud, and Flameshot support.
What you can build with XBackBone
XBackBone is a lightweight PHP file manager and image host designed around the popular ShareX uploader workflow. Drop a screenshot or file into ShareX (or ScreenCloud, Flameshot, or any compatible client) and XBackBone hosts it instantly behind a shareable short URL — with markdown preview, raw-text rendering, gallery view, and per-user quotas built in.
Self-hosting XBackBone on a VPS replaces commercial image hosts and pastebin services with infrastructure you fully control. Multi-user accounts, role-based permissions, and built-in OAuth integration make it suitable for both individuals and small teams that want a private screenshot and file dropping endpoint.
Key features of XBackBone
ShareX-native uploads
Drop files into ShareX, ScreenCloud, or Flameshot and XBackBone hosts them instantly via the standard upload API.
Gallery and previews
Browser gallery view with auto-generated thumbnails, plus inline rendering for images, video, audio, and Markdown content.
Multi-user accounts
Per-user accounts with role-based permissions and individual quotas let teams or families share one server without crossing libraries.
Public and private links
Each upload generates a short URL with optional password protection, expiry, and one-time access modes for sensitive content.
OAuth and SSO support
Built-in OAuth integration with Google, Discord, and GitLab eliminates separate account management for teams already on those platforms.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Hostinger Agent and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
