transbeam logo: a laser warning sign in trans flag colors

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

transbeam is configured with the following environment variables:

STORAGE_DIR: path where uploaded files should be stored (default: ./storage)
STATIC_DIR: path where the web app's static files live (default: ./static)
PORT: port to listen on localhost for http requests (default: 8080)
