    Iā€™d say wormhole-gui (https://github.com/Jacalz/wormhole-gui), but I might be a bit biased :)

    > No, seriously. Itā€™s so simple I thought I missed something. But no. After you run that binary, you have a fully operational node of Syncthing. Itā€™s ready to sync with any other Syncthing node, no other setup necessary. Thereā€™s no installers, no package management (but there are packages if you want to), no registration, no email, no logins, no password creation, no 2FA, no consents, no user agreements.

    The most similar experience I had to this in recent years was using a program called wormhole for peer to peer file transfer: https://github.com/Jacalz/wormhole-gui

    It was refreshing in a similar way; I download and open up the program, a friend does the same, and we can send files to each other, with a code genereated from the program. None of all this accounts stuff.

    (For what it's worth, file sending has a similar issue as backup/sync that the author described -- most modern services are some centralized/cloud form, as opposed to the old days of ICQ/AIM/etc. where you could actually establish a direct connection to a friend and send files.)

    Any reason for not just using the go mod vendor support? That was what I have planned to use in the future. Actually managed to get a working Flatpak. Could do with some tweaking, but it is generally working now :) https://github.com/Jacalz/wormhole-gui/issues/23

    TLDR at the bottom.

    It seems the answer is Brian Warner's magic-wormhole. You're gonna see lots of file transfer sites with wormhole in their name, but if you want security you should use the original one, which is BW's m-w.

    It is implemented in Python [1], so it's hard to install.

    So someone made a Go version of it [2] that has binaries for windows, Mac, Linux, BSD etc. But it's command line so maybe not suitable for lay people.

    So another person made a GUI for it that also has binaries for all OS [3].

    Also there is an android app [4]. Someone needs to implement an iOS one.

    TLDR: ask them to install [5] and [6].

    (click on 'Assets' under 'Latest release' and download the zip or tar.gz for your OS)

    Try it, it's usage is cute and really feels like magic.

    It seems like thereā€™s already a GUI version. If you still want to make your own, go for it, but I figured Iā€™d mention this in case you hadnā€™t seen it.
