Hey Product Hunt! :)
I'm Sanchit, and I built Yoop because I was tired of a very specific kind of friction in my everyday life.
The frustration:
I'd be working on my laptop, need to move a 2GB project folder to my desktop (literally 3 feet away), and my options were:
1. Upload to Google Drive, wait, then download
2. Find a USB drive
3. Type out my desktop's IP address and transfer it
4. And there were cases where I saw something in one device, copied it, but couldn't paste it in my desktop, so I had to send it to myself on WhatsApp and then copy the message from my desktop, haha
But both devices were on the same Wi-Fi network, so...
I built Yoop:
- Share files with a 4-letter code (like "A7K9")
- Works cross-platform (Windows, macOS, Linux)
- All transfers stay on your local network (encrypted with TLS 1.3)
- Clipboard sync between devices, even cross platform! (One of those things which seem small, but save a LOT of time)
Current status:
- Fully functional CLI + web interface
- Open source (MIT/Apache 2.0)
- Active development (planning more, really great features, like having a mobile app on both Android & iOS, and bringing them into play as well)
I'd love feedback on:
- Does this solve a problem you've experienced?
- What features would make this more useful for your workflow?
- Any bugs/issues

Been using it daily ever since I developed it. If you value privacy and are tired of cloud dependency for local tasks, give it a shot.
Happy to answer any questions, and if you give this a shot, thank you so much! <3
