    User mode file system library for windows with FUSE Wrapper

  • It's not really the same though. A Projected File System copies the files from the backing store to somewhere on the local file system when requested and then performs IO normally on the local files.

    For an actual implementation of userspace filesystems on Windows see dokany: https://github.com/dokan-dev/dokany

  • ProjFS-Managed-API

    A managed-code API for the Windows Projected File System

  • There's some discussion here: https://github.com/microsoft/ProjFS-Managed-API/issues/54

    It looks like it's meant to solve a much narrower problem than FUSE.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
