About Digital Treasure Vault (GXL Repo)

Having my own computer and smartphone, I started to explore various software applications and gradually developed a habit of collecting my favorite applications. Whenever I discover a favorite application, I save its installation package.

I collected a large number of commonly used programs and simply saved them on my hard drive. After downloading and using a large number of applications in China's online environment, I found that domestic application download sites and programs were rogue software, acting arbitrarily and disregarding user rights, without any spirit of open source or freedom. So I began leaning towards collecting open-source and purely foreign software.

Started batch organizing and archiving collected resources, and cleaned up a large number of cracked, Chinese-translated, portable, and stripped-down versions of software downloaded from domestic Chinese download sites. Their origins are unknown, their quality is poor, and they often come bundled with malicious plugins. I downloaded and replaced some clean original versions from major foreign websites.

Actively download historical versions for some applications. Label the source of application downloads. Realizing that "having too many favorites stored is meaningless," I hope to create a sharing website.

The existence of cloud storage has made storage and sharing no longer a huge cost, and Cloudflare Tunnel allows website servers to be built locally. I purchased a long-term domain at a low price from Alibaba Cloud, and with conditions being ripe, I decided to create this website to share a curated collection of programs. I began building the website.
