Readme
Features
- Available as a CLI tool and a website 🚀 - Which can talk between themselves or each other.
- An opensource alternative to AirDrop - Discovers localNetwork devices and get Files with a single click
- No signUp needed fully P2P.
- Unique approach of using a mix of WebRTC and Webtorrent to scale onDemand and reusing existing connections and storage
- Supports multiple users at the same time for a file.
- Evades the wait time for torrent-creation induced by webTorrent by mimicing the chunkStore using normal webRTC and seding pieces prematurely. Once the torrent has been created , every peer connection is reused and webTorrent downloads only the pieces left - Huge perfomance boost 🚀.
- Uses the best approach based on the scale, torrentMode gets activated only if the roomSize gets larger ( more than 2 receivers)
