Droopy

Droopy is an open-source, totally free, single-file software that works as a web-based and command-line tool. It’s made to be a simple web server for anyone who needs a quick and portable way to share files. How cool is that?

File Sharing Made Easy

With Droopy, your friends can upload files straight to your computer. It’s super handy! Plus, the best part is that Droopy runs on pretty much any system out there. Whether you’re using GNU/Linux, BSD, Windows, or Mac OS X, it’s got you covered. And yes, it supports both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms!

User-Friendly Interface

Even though Droopy is mainly a command-line tool, it comes with an easy-to-use browser interface. This means anyone who has access can quickly upload files from their devices to yours without any hassle.

Getting Started with Droopy

The software is just one file that you can download and tweak if you want to! To kick things off, grab the file (just remember it has no extension), save it wherever you like on your computer, and make it executable. Right-click on it, head to Preferences, then go to the Permission tab and check the ‘Allow executing file as a program’ option.

Command-Line Options

If you want to explore all the cool features of Droopy via the command line, just open any terminal emulator and type in ‘droopy -h’. You’ll see options like choosing the upload directory or setting up messages and pictures for uploads. You can even create usernames and passwords for extra security!

Secure Your Connections

You can also set up secure HTTP (HTTPS) if you have a certificate file handy. Plus, there are options for managing file permissions using octal values or saving your settings in a config file. If things get messy, you can delete that config file and exit whenever you want.

If you're ready to dive in and try out Droopy, you'll find it's a fantastic tool for easy file sharing!
