WarpDrop

Privacy-first, self-hostable, realtime file sharing. Like AirDrop, but for people who don't trust "The Cloud™?" or just want to feel like a hacker sending files over a CLI.

• Web: warpdrop.qzz.io
• CLI: curl -fsSL install.warpdrop.qzz.io | bash
• • Scoop (Windows): scoop bucket add biohazard786 https://github.com/BioHazard786/scoop-bucket.git && scoop install biohazard786/warpdrop
• • Brew (MacOS): brew tap BioHazard786/tap && brew install --cask warpdrop
• Self-Hosting: DEPLOY.md (Because you're an adult and you can host your own servers).

Why WarpDrop?

Because sending files shouldn't involve uploading them to a billionaire's server farm.

• Peer-to-Peer: The file goes from your machine to theirs. No stops in between.
• Ephemeral: It's like SnapChat for zip files. Close the tab, and it's gone forever.
• Go + Next.js: Backend is a tiny Go binary (because we like speed), Frontend is Next.js (because we like suffering... just kidding, it's actually pretty nice).
• STUN/TURN: We baked these in so you can punch through NATs like they're wet paper bags.

A Note on the Demo Server

The public instance (warpdrop.qzz.io) runs on an Oracle Cloud Free Tier A1 Instance. Why? because I'm cheap. If it's down, Oracle probably reclaimed my instance to mine crypto or something. Solution: Host it yourself (see below).
