## What it is
Rymdport is a cross-platform GUI application for securely sharing files, folders, and text between devices using end-to-end encryption. It implements the magic-wormhole protocol in native Go via wormhole-william, compiling to a single static binary with no runtime dependencies and interoperating with other wormhole clients.

## Use cases
- send files securely between my laptop and phone
- share a folder with a friend without uploading to the cloud
- transfer text snippets between devices with encryption
- send files to someone using a different wormhole client
- share files without creating an account or using a server storage
- cross-platform file transfer tool for linux mac and windows

## When to choose
- you want encrypted peer-to-peer-style transfers with a simple GUI instead of the command line
- you need a single native binary with no runtime dependencies
- you must interoperate with other magic-wormhole clients
- you want faster transfers than the reference Python wormhole implementation

## When to avoid
- you need a command-line-only tool or scriptable transfer workflow
- you require resumable transfers for very large files over unstable connections
- you need a web-based or browser-accessible sharing interface
- you want transfers through a self-hosted storage server rather than direct wormhole relays
