EasyTransfer is a free, anonymous, end-to-end encrypted file transfer tool for anyone who wants to move files between two devices across any network simply by visiting a web page and typing a four-digit device code.

What it is

EasyTransfer is a browser-based, end-to-end encrypted file transfer application built with WebRTC and Vue.js, written in TypeScript and released under the GPL-3.0 licence. It runs as a website, and the hosted instance is available at https://file.ch3nyang.top. There is no account system: no registration, no login, and no personal information are required to use it, and files move directly between sender and receiver rather than being stored on a central server.

The concrete problem it solves is moving files between devices that sit behind different networks — a laptop on a home LAN and a phone on mobile data, for example — without installing software or setting up accounts. Two devices join the same session by entering one device's four-digit device code into the other's input box, after which files can be dragged into the file area or selected by clicking it, with multiple files accepted at once. Where direct peer-to-peer connection requires NAT traversal, the file may be uploaded to the project's free TURN server, which the project notes you can avoid by deploying your own trusted TURN server.

Key capabilities

• Connect two devices across LAN and WAN by entering a four-digit device code, with no registration, login, or personal details required.
• Transfer files peer-to-peer over WebRTC so they travel directly from sender to receiver without passing through the server, with encryption applied by default.
• Send multiple files at once by dragging them into the file area, and send text messages and photos alongside other file types.
• Configure a custom STUN server and TURN server from the settings panel, along with a configurable maximum number of connections.
• Self-host every module of the stack, since the project states that all modules can be customized and deployed by yourself.
• Reach devices on restricted networks using STUN/TURN NAT traversal, falling back to the project's free TURN server when intranet penetration is needed.

Who uses it and how

• Individuals transferring files between their own devices on different networks, such as a desktop on a home LAN and a laptop elsewhere, using nothing but a browser.
• Users who need to share files without creating an account, since the tool requires no registration and collects no personal information.
• Self-hosters who deploy the full stack themselves, including their own STUN/TURN server, following the deployment methods documented in the Project Wiki.
• Teams and contributors working in TypeScript who want to extend the codebase, with a Contribution Guide and a CHANGELOG maintained in the repository.

Getting started

Visit https://file.ch3nyang.top on both devices, enter the four-digit device code of one device into the other, and press connect; for self-hosting, follow the deployment methods in the Project Wiki at https://github.com/DevXDojo/EasyTransfer/wiki/Navigator.

How it compares

No comparable tools or paid products are named in the available facts, so in this registry EasyTransfer stands alone as the reference point for this category rather than sitting alongside a labelled peer set.

When to use it — and when not to

For reliable speed and stability across restrictive networks you should plan to operate your own STUN/TURN server, since the built-in free TURN server may carry your file when intranet penetration is required, and self-hosts must also handle the web application's own deployment. It is a poor fit if you need a hosted, account-based service with server-side file storage and sharing history, since files are meant to travel directly between peers and nothing is registered. The README defers concrete deployment instructions to the Project Wiki rather than stating them inline, so a self-hoster should expect to consult the wiki before setup.
