Alguien por aquí recomendó en su día Localsend y me da mucha pena no recordar quién fue porque tiene mi agradecimiento eterno.

LocalSend: Share files to nearby devices

LocalSend is a free, open-source, cross-platform file sharing tool that allows you to share files to nearby devices.

I've been running btsync for years. It was overkill for what I needed at home, or not quite right for real geo-replication services for storage arrays. So I built something.

I'm not done, but it's pretty neat already!
