Description

A GVFS backend for DNS-SD discovery and WebDAV access, including macOS-style file sharing workflows. It helps file managers discover and connect to network file shares through GIO.

Install it if you browse WebDAV or discovered network shares from GNOME applications. Network file browsing can expose credentials and file metadata, so use trusted servers.
