- โ Light - The lightest file-transfer app you would find!
- โ Fast - Zero Overheads. Theoretically, as fast as your WiFi is!
- โ Secure - P2P WebRTC-based File-Transfer
- โ No Special Hotspot - Works with any existing hotspot or network between devices.
- โ No App Install - Works on any device with a modern web browser.
- โ No Non-Sense - Open Source, No Ads, No User Info Asked/Stored
- Ensure both devices are in the same network
- Open Bayjdo in both devices, and from any one of the device enter the code of the other. (You may also make use of in-built QR-Scanner & Scan the QR instead)
- Select files to send ๐
- Wait till transfer is complete, ๐
The app is completely based on web-technologies and runs on any modern web browser. For establishing the connection between two devices, a WebRTC signalling server (PeerJS) is used. This server is however not involved in the data transfer process.
All files being transmitted get encrypted by WebRTC standards, no one except the two devices would be able to read them. For further clarification, no files are ever sent to any server, and the file are always transferred directly (P2P) from one device to another through an encrypted WebRTC/WS channel.
Sadly no. ๐ Only browsers with the support for WebRTC can support Bayjdo, however, all modern & popular browsers do support WebRTC and hence Bayjdo ๐ป

This project is only being developed, as a hobby project and does not intend to replace any popular file transfer application. The implementation of this project is currently very basic, and intends only to be a proof of concept for the technology used. This app may have technical glitches, security & privacy vulnerabilities. If you plan to use it for transferring confidential files etc., please look elsewhere for now.
Neither the idea for this project, nor the technology used is, were conceived originally by me. This project only differs in implementations (+ some minor features), from some of the following popular projects it was inspired from -
- https://github.com/cowbell/sharedrop / https://www.sharedrop.io/
- https://github.com/RobinLinus/snapdrop / https://snapdrop.net/
