"Crossdrop is a partial implementation of Google's Nearby Share in Flutter for macOS, iOS and Linux"👀

Developer PlutoHDDev is working on porting Google's Nearby Share to more platforms, starting with Linux first!

Crossdrop is still a work-in-progress, so it's not feature-complete nor stable enough for production use. It's based on NearDrop, a previous port of Nearby Share to macOS, made by developer grishka.

We need your support!

Do you remember the good old days when corporations made shitty programs that didn't follow standards, and we could complain that they're shitty and don't follow standards?

Nowadays corporations make standards shitty instead, and we are forced to make shitty programs to follow them.
