Hi Product Hunt 👋
I built HearthWire because home networks are still much harder than they should be.
If you have several Windows PCs at home, simple things like moving a file, sharing a printer, helping a family member, or even getting two PCs to see each other can still turn into a frustrating mess.
HearthWire is my attempt to make that disappear. Install it on your PCs and they automatically find each other over your local network. You can message between computers, share and sync folders, stream files, share printers, help family remotely, and even repair common Windows networking problems with Network Doctor.
The important part for me was keeping it local: no cloud, no accounts, no tracking, and no subscription. Your files and messages stay between your own computers.
I’d especially love feedback on the Network Doctor and on what other home-network tasks you wish Windows handled automatically.
