transbeam
A low-latency file drop web app
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
- Sanitises filenames, using sensible non-obnoxious defaults that should be safe across platforms
- Fires a laser beam that turns you trans
