FTP? Web GUI? SMB (Windows shared folder)? SFTP/ssh transfer?

I wish to build a Web GUI around the FTP/Samba. I want to connect devices like Android Devices, Windows devices and such to the NAS via a Web GUI that I will be building.

Do you have basic notions about command line usage, system administration and so on?

This is a stupid question, but it will help me to know what I should explain you.

https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/ftp.overview
https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/cifs.server

About the Web GUI, I fear that you'll need to do it by yourself.
However, maybe you can use the Onion Console Editor app as GUI to upload files.

I am familiar with Linux commands and FTP stuff. I would like to build the Web GUI myself anyway, I just wanted to know which package would be suitable for this purpose. And some reference material that can help me would also be great. I will check the links you have sent. Thanks!

I already installed:opkg install samba36-client
smbclient //192.168.0.40/storage -U username%password is working,

mount -t cifs //IPADRESS/storage ~/mnt -o username=user password=pw
