Show HN: Socket to Me, a static file server that runs in the browser
Instant folder sharing
Summary not yet generated for this article.
Original Text
The service lets you share an entire folder - not just a single file - with anyone on the Internet in a single click.
Under the hood, GET responses are hydrated with file fragments streamed over a duplex WebSocket connection. Close the browser tab, and the server disappears. Files can also be password-protected.
I built it because I needed a way to share a static website with a client without first uploading the work to a cloud service.
