Croc: Easily and securely send things from one computer to another
I’m currently working on a new version of pcp [0]. Based on croc, magic-wormhole and the likes it doesn’t require a relay. It uses the IPFS DHT as a discovery point to connect two machines. Haven’t touched the currently released code in two years but the new hole punching capabilities of libp2p show promising result so I’m working on a new version.

[help] Use cli p2p to transfer files between 2 devices
I was wondering about this recently too. I found PCP - Peer Copy. Probably not secure enough to use in production. https://github.com/dennis-tra/pcp

Send: A Fork of Mozilla's Firefox Send
I‘ve also built a file transfer tool (CLI) with emphasis on decentralization. It’s a fully decentralized p2p file transfer tool based on libp2p:

I‘m currently trying to make it interoperable with https://share.ipfs.io/#/ which resembles the functionality of the posted tool.

Found this thing called Wormhole, looks like a pretty good Firefox Send replacement
https://github.com/dennis-tra/pcp It's really really good on the technical side, though it's still a WIP and has no GUI yet (shouldn't be very hard to implement though).

This very hn entries is bust contradicting your statement.
Also what about syncthing[1] (for recurrent/permanent sync) and croc[2] (for one time copies) ?
I have used both for a number of years already.

CLI to browser P2P fileshare
I'm trying to find very specific software.I need CLI(!!!) tool like Croc to share files using P2P, but it's very inconvenient to ask people to install same software as me(Croc in this case). Instead i want to get direct download URL, so anyone can download it just by using browser.
