I built Linkx — SSH file transfer for Termux because USB cables were killing my ports

Why I built this
I'm a self-taught developer from India. Got my first laptop in August 2025. Started learning to code from zero. I was constantly transferring files between my laptop, 3 phones, and 2 VMs for testing. USB cables were slow, wore out my ports, and annoyed me. SSH was faster but writing the full command every time was painful. So I built Linkx to automate it.
What it does
— Auto-discovers SSH devices on your network
— Transfers files between Linux, Android/Termux, Windows
— Saves paired devices so one keystroke sends files
— Works completely offline, no cloud, no accounts
