Online file editor, manager

I am looking for a small PHP (7 compatible) solution which allows user to edit files from specific folder on website without using ftp.
Something similar to Joomla's admin template component, it shows specific folder of template with files and folders, and allows you to edit, to create and to delete files.

A hoster does not allow creating new ftp users to specific paths, but I don't want to provide ftp access to root directory to plugging developer.

You can use Projectsend, this is very easy to set
https://github.com/ignacionelson/ProjectSend

I'm using this since serveral years.
The newest version is using PHP PDO.
You can manage client, system user and groups.
This is very flexible.

Let me know if you need more infos.

Interface and functionality are good. But I wish I could edit txt files without downloading and uploading. How to list existed files and folders from current website. I placed software to /a directory, website in root obviously, but it shows only files no directories.
You can check this script is cheap and flexible and it allows to edit file in place and file preview

Exactly, what I need except it isn't PHP7 compatible.

Thanks, this one works. Well, Lift file manage doesn't support PHP as many ask migration related question in comments, and it seems abandoned. File gator is simple but it works.
