Inspiration
We found existing P2P sharing solutions on the web cumbersome to use so aimed to make a more streamlined version ourselves.
What it does
It faciliates the transferring of files between clients without a central server that stores the files.
How we built it
We built it using a React frontend and express.js/node.js backend. We also utilised a VPS to host the relevant services.
Challenges we ran into
Our go-to frameworks were incompatible with the libraries we aimed to use so we had to employ some hacky workarounds which made developing more difficult.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
It (mostly) works :) We are proud of the improvements we made in our knowledge of networking and browsers and we think our website looks pretty sweet.
What we learned
We learned to not give up 🙏, especially faced with unreasonable decisions.
