  • sharedrop

    Easy P2P file transfer powered by WebRTC - inspired by Apple AirDrop

    • Kind of, but it has the same problem as sharedrop.io: It sends the files over WiFi, which is not possible on most school networks (at least not here in Denmark).

  • FilePizza

    :pizza: Peer-to-peer file transfers in your browser

    • Just look at https://file.pizza/, that even is Browser-To-Browser, removing the privacy issue that the implementation by OP has.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
