What is Pier?

Pier turns a remote folder into a normal Windows drive letter. It speaks WebDAV (Nextcloud, ownCloud, Synology, QNAP, Apache, IIS), SFTP (any SSH server, password or OpenSSH keys) and NFSv3, and uses the open-source Dokany driver, installed for you by the setup program, so Explorer, Office, backup tools and scripts work on the drive as on a local disk.
