Original Summary
I've been building Ferry, a desktop and browser app for sending files, folders, text and links straight between your own devices. No account, no cloud copy, no telemetry. It speaks the LocalSend protocol, so it works with the LocalSend devices you already have. On top of that it adds: Resumable transfers : a dropped connection or a restarted receiver continues from the last confirmed byte Several transfers at once , and sending to several devices in one drop Pairing your own devices with a QR code or a 6-digit code, so they send to each other without prompts Beyond your network : a small self-hostable signaling server lets devices connect peer to peer over WebRTC, end-to-end encrypted, or through a private link A browser app (installable PWA), plus QR links so any browser on your network can send or receive without installing anything Mutual TLS with pinned certificates, and flat memory use (a 10 GB transfer used about 7 MB of extra RAM in my benchmarks) Built with a Rust engine, Tauri 2 and Vue 3. Apache-2.0. Honest status : it's early. The desktop app is tested on Windows. The macOS and Linux installers build in CI, and they're not code-signed. No mobile apps yet. Repo: https://github.com/F7rx/Ferry Downloads: https://github.com/F7rx/Ferry/releases Feedback and bug reports are very welcome, especially from macOS and Linux users. Ferry isn't affiliated with LocalSend; it's an independent app that implements its protocol.   submitted by   /u/F7rx [link]   [comments]
