## What it is
An Android file transfer app modeled after SHAREit (茄子快传), supporting device-to-device transfers over a custom TCP/UDP socket protocol and browser-based transfers via an embedded mini HTTP server. Written in Java, it uses Wi-Fi hotspot to create a LAN between sender and receiver.

## Use cases
- transfer files between two android phones over wifi
- send files from phone to pc browser without installing an app
- shareit alternative open source
- learn how to implement socket-based file transfer on android
- transfer files over local network with thumbnails
- android wifi hotspot file sharing app

## When to choose
- you need offline LAN file transfer between Android devices without internet
- you want to study a working example of custom socket protocols and embedded HTTP servers on Android
- you want browser-based file receiving without installing anything on the receiver

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained, production-ready app - the project has had no releases since 2017
- you need iOS or cross-platform support - it is Android-only
- you need encrypted or secure transfers - no security features are described

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: abandoned
