## What it is
Sharry is a self-hosted web application for sharing files: users upload files and receive a shareable URL, optionally protected by a password and an expiry period. It also supports alias pages that let outsiders upload files to registered users without needing an account.

## Use cases
- self-hosted file sharing server
- send large files without a third-party service
- receive files from clients without accounts
- share files with password and expiry links
- resumable uploads over unreliable networks
- alternative to WeTransfer I can host myself

## When to choose
- you want full control over where your files are stored
- you need both outbound sharing and inbound uploads from anonymous users
- you want password protection and time-limited download links
- you prefer self-hosting via Docker, deb, zip, or Nix

## When to avoid
- you need real-time collaborative editing of shared files
- you want a managed cloud service with no server to run
- you need peer-to-peer transfer without a central server
- you need heavy built-in media processing or preview features
