hey. im working on a p2p file sharing app. its far from finished, but ive got enough to put it up for testing and demo purposes. it would be great if you would like to take a look and share feedback.
the aim is for this is to make it easier to transfer files between your own devices.
(my app-description combined with security-claims typically raises eyebrows, so id like to include a link to a related reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/cryptography/comments/1evdby4/is_this_a_secure_messaging_app)
some pending things to add:
- improved connection stability when over the internet.
- increased file size capacity (currently limited to around 50MB)
- add file-transfer progress indicator (useful for larger payloads).
feel free to reach out for clarity.
How do you solve cgnat? Even if both devices behind different cgnat?
there isnt any UI for this yet, but id like to make it so users can input their own TURN/STUN servers as described in the peerjs docs: https://peerjs.com/docs/#peer-options-config
id like to work towards making it so that the frontend and backend are independently selfhostable to suit thier networking config.
It doesn’t sound as zero-installation as you wrote in other comments.
At this point I could just install wireguard on the server and use whatever filesharing protocol I want. As I do now, but I think I’m not your target audience anyway.
If I would use your server, than it wouldn’t be really p2p.
