+# WebDAV Properties Specification
+
+WebDAV (Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning) extends HTTP to allow remote web content authoring operations. One of its most important features is **property management**, which allows clients to retrieve, set, and delete metadata (called "properties") on resources.
+
+---
+
+## Relevant RFCs
+
+- RFC 4918 - HTTP Extensions for Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV)
+- RFC 2518 - Original WebDAV specification (obsolete)
+
+---
+
+## Property Concepts
+
+### What is a Property?
+
+- A **property** is metadata associated with a WebDAV resource, such as a file or directory.
+- Properties are identified by **qualified names** in the form of `{namespace}propertyname`.
+- Property values are represented in XML.
+
+---
+
+## Property Value Types
+
+- XML-based values (text or structured XML)
+- Unicode text
+- Either **live** (managed by the server) or **dead** (set by clients)
+
+---
+
+## Live vs Dead Properties
+
+| Type    | Description                               | Managed By |
+|---------|-------------------------------------------|------------|
+| Live    | Server-defined and maintained             | Server     |
+| Dead    | Arbitrary client-defined metadata         | Client     |
+
+Examples of live properties include `getlastmodified`, `resourcetype`, and `displayname`.
+
+---
+
+## PROPFIND - Retrieving Properties
+
+**Method**: PROPFIND  
+**Purpose**: Retrieve properties from a resource.
+
+### Depth Header
+
+| Value      | Meaning                          |
+|------------|----------------------------------|
+| 0          | The resource itself              |
+| 1          | Resource and its immediate children |
+| infinity   | Resource and all descendants     |
+
+### Request Body Examples
+
+#### All Properties
+
+```xml
+<propfind xmlns="DAV:">
+  <allprop/>
+</propfind>
+```
+
+#### Specific Properties
+
+```xml
+<propfind xmlns="DAV:">
+  <prop>
+    <displayname/>
+    <getlastmodified/>
+  </prop>
+</propfind>
+```
+
+#### Property Names Only
+
+```xml
+<propfind xmlns="DAV:">
+  <propname/>
+</propfind>
+```
+
+### Example Response
+
+```xml
+<multistatus xmlns="DAV:">
+  <response>
+    <href>/file.txt</href>
+    <propstat>
+      <prop>
+        <displayname>file.txt</displayname>
+        <getlastmodified>Fri, 28 Mar 2025 09:00:00 GMT</getlastmodified>
+      </prop>
+      <status>HTTP/1.1 200 OK</status>
+    </propstat>
+  </response>
+</multistatus>
+```
+
+---
+
+## PROPPATCH - Setting or Removing Properties
+
+**Method**: PROPPATCH  
+**Purpose**: Set or remove one or more properties.
+
+### Example Request
+
+```xml
+<propertyupdate xmlns="DAV:">
+  <set>
+    <prop>
+      <author>Kristof</author>
+    </prop>
+  </set>
+  <remove>
+    <prop>
+      <obsoleteprop/>
+    </prop>
+  </remove>
+</propertyupdate>
+```
+
+### Example Response
+
+```xml
+<multistatus xmlns="DAV:">
+  <response>
+    <href>/file.txt</href>
+    <propstat>
+      <prop>
+        <author/>
+      </prop>
+      <status>HTTP/1.1 200 OK</status>
+    </propstat>
+    <propstat>
+      <prop>
+        <obsoleteprop/>
+      </prop>
+      <status>HTTP/1.1 200 OK</status>
+    </propstat>
+  </response>
+</multistatus>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Common Live Properties
+
+| Property Name       | Namespace | Description                        |
+|---------------------|-----------|------------------------------------|
+| getcontentlength     | DAV:      | Size in bytes                      |
+| getcontenttype       | DAV:      | MIME type                          |
+| getetag              | DAV:      | Entity tag (ETag)                  |
+| getlastmodified      | DAV:      | Last modification time             |
+| creationdate         | DAV:      | Resource creation time             |
+| resourcetype         | DAV:      | Type of resource (file, collection)|
+| displayname          | DAV:      | Human-friendly name                |
+
+---
+
+## Custom Properties
+
+Clients can define their own custom properties as XML with custom namespaces.
+
+Example:
+
+```xml
+<project xmlns="http://example.com/customns">Phoenix</project>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Namespaces
+
+WebDAV uses XML namespaces to avoid naming conflicts.
+
+Example:
+
+```xml
+<prop xmlns:D="DAV:" xmlns:C="http://example.com/customns">
+  <C:author>Kristof</C:author>
+</prop>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Other Related Methods
+
+- `MKCOL`: Create a new collection (directory)
+- `DELETE`: Remove a resource and its properties
+- `COPY` and `MOVE`: Properties are copied/moved along with resources
+
+---
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+- Clients need authorization to read or write properties.
+- Live properties may not be writable.
+- Dead property values must be stored and returned exactly as set.
+
+---
+
+## Complete Example Workflow
+
+1. Retrieve all properties:
+
+```http
+PROPFIND /doc.txt HTTP/1.1
+Depth: 0
+```
+
+2. Set a custom property:
+
+```http
+PROPPATCH /doc.txt HTTP/1.1
+Content-Type: application/xml
+```
+
+```xml
+<propertyupdate xmlns="DAV:">
+  <set>
+    <prop>
+      <project xmlns="http://example.org/ns">Phoenix</project>
+    </prop>
+  </set>
+</propertyupdate>
+```
+
