elFinder is not a fully in-browser file editor, but relies on a PHP backend to actually handle all file manipulation operations.
This allows a more broader spectrum of operations, ranging from basic copy-paste tasks, to more complex upload or archiving procedures.
As you can imagine this can prove very valuable in some situations, especially for building Web applications that need to provide a remote FTP component.
elFinder can be used on its own as a fully-blown file manager, but it can also be embedded in WYSIWYG editors like elRTE, CKEditor, TinyMCE, etc., to provide a file selection and file management utility for that specific rich text editor.
If you don't like the default backend, there are connectors which will allow you to connect it to other backends like Ruby, Java or Python.
