Transporter

Transporter is an open-source Linux application for sharing files between computers. It is intended for communication between devices when a user needs to send files from one machine to another. The application identifies the participating devices through matching wormhole codes. Its purpose is to provide a fast and safe way to transfer files between computers.

The sending computer generates and displays a wormhole code for the transfer. The receiving computer joins by entering the same code. These codes are designed to be easy to memorize and pronounce, so they can be communicated aloud when appropriate. This code-based process gives the sender and receiver a clear way to identify the two devices involved.

Transporter is listed in the Communication category because its main role is to connect computers for file sharing. Its Linux platform makes it relevant to users working with Linux computers that need this type of direct exchange. The open-source license allows the software to be used as an openly developed application. MirrorNest distributes the official build directly from its own storage after scanning it for malware before publication.
