Open it on two devices, scan the QR code (or type the 6-character code), and drop files or text. Data goes directly between browsers over WebRTC. PeerJS's free public server is used only for pairing. Everything is in one HTML file, MIT licensed: <a href="https://github.com/theinsidecoder/beamdrop" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://github.com/theinsidecoder/beamdrop</a><br> Known limits: pairing depends on the free PeerJS server, received files are held in memory until saved, and anyone with the code can connect while the tab is open (I plan to add a device-approval prompt). I'd appreciate feedback on pairing reliability on different networks.</p> webdev productivity opensource automation Hassan Khan Sun, 23 Aug 2026 12:13:32 +0000 https://dev.to/hasssaaan/ideas-code-impact-lets-build-powerful-meaningful-software-5bce https://dev.to/hasssaaan/ideas-code-impact-lets-build-powerful-meaningful-software-5bce <p><a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F6ux779ytt4e97lunyk3m.jpeg" class="article-body-image-wrapper"><img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F6ux779ytt4e97lunyk3m.jpeg" alt=" " width="800" height="800"></a></p>
