Magic Wormhole

Magic Wormhole

Send files between computers with a few-word code

Description

Sending a file from one computer to another still means an account, a cloud upload and a link? Magic Wormhole is far more elegant—the sender generates a three-word code like '7-crossover-clockwork', the receiver types it and the transfer begins. End-to-end encrypted throughout, peer-to-peer where possible. A CLI tool, a classic way for techies to send files.

Features



Code pairing: pair send/receive with a one-time few-word code.

End-to-end encryption: encrypted, readable only by the two parties.

Peer-to-peer: direct where possible, minimizing server relay.

Cross-platform: a simple, reliable open-source CLI.
