Download Lightning P2P

AirDrop-style file transfer for Windows

What it does

Lightning P2P is an open-source file transfer app for Windows. It lets you share files through a simple link or QR flow without accounts or cloud storage. Built with Rust, Tauri, iroh/QUIC and BLAKE3 verification, it is direct-first with relay fallback when direct connections are blocked. The current launch includes a Windows release and Android sideload alpha, with macOS/Linux planned next.

    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 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…

    Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
