wormhole-william

Wormhole-william is a command-line tool and API for transferring files between computers with end-to-end encryption. Built in Go, it implements the magic wormhole protocol, allowing developers to securely share files over networks without storing them on intermediate servers. The tool provides both CLI and programmatic interfaces for integration into applications. Wormhole-william is developed by psanford and distributed under the MIT license, making it available for both open source and commercial use.

The tool addresses the need for simple, secure file transfers without requiring complex setup or authentication infrastructure. By using end-to-end encryption, the sender and receiver can exchange files knowing that no third party can access the data in transit. The magic wormhole approach uses simple codes that both parties exchange to establish the transfer, eliminating the need for shared accounts or pre-arranged credentials.
