features

  • One-to-many transfer of large files
  • Simple web UI for sender and receivers
  • Receivers can begin downloading immediately, without needing to wait for the upload to finish
  • Receivers can also download after the upload is complete and the sender has gone offline
  • Easy to send multiple files at once - they're bundled into a zip file for receivers, with zero compression so extraction is quick
