I have decided to open source this project to increase trust even further. In case you have seen my previous posts, this is an update for berb.app, a WebRTC file sharing app. My goal is simple: send files between devices in real-time without installing crap or uploading to any servers.

Hey everyone, my friend from university and I built this simple app to handle a really specific use case: You need a picture or PDF transferred from your phone to your PC, and don't want to use whatsapp web / google photos / etc. Here's the workflow: 1. Open qrpigeon.pics on your desktop browser 2. Open your phone camera, scan the QR code, and get redirected to qrpigeon (connected to the desktop's session) 3. Upload / take a photo or PDF from your phone via the phone's browser 4. See the file appear instantly on the desktop browser! Please give us feedback! We want to make…

Hey HN, I'm a C++ algorithms engineer, and today I'd like to share my first full-stack web project: PrivyDrop. This project was born from two ideas: First, I wanted to solve a daily annoyance of mine: I needed a simple, AirDrop-like way to send text, links, or screenshots between my phone and PC. I tried many tools, but they either required me to sign up, had various limitations, or uploaded my data to their servers, which I was never comfortable with. Second, this was a personal experiment. Last year, with all the talk about "AI replacing programmers," I got curious. As a developer with no…

Early in April I needed to print some tax forms at the library, first time in forever, and I began to wonder: what's the easiest way to get a file onto a public computer? There are many ways, but most of them involve creating an account somewhere or plugging in a thumb-drive. I use a password manager, so my passwords are long and complicated, not easily typed. I don't want to plug anything into a public computer, nor do I fancy uploading my taxes to some random website. I thought about what a helpful product would looks like, and in about an hour I spun up the first version,…

I found transferring images from my PC to my phone very tedious. Using Whatsapp and other such apps reduced image quality and had limitations on the file size. Using online file transfer solutions were too slow for my taste. Hence, I created a desktop app to send all sorts of files - images, PDFs, lengthy videos, etc. to any device connected to the same Wi-Fi network. You also don't need to download a separate mobile app. There's only 3 steps involved - select your files, scan a QR code, download your files. You can download it now for free via https://fyldrop.com
