Meet croc – a free, open-source CLI tool that might just be the best file transfer tool out there, and in this video we break down exactly why. We walk through the three pillars every good file transfer system needs (fast, secure, simple), show why most tools you already use only hit two of them, and then demo just how easy it is to send files between two machines with croc. We also get into how it actually works under the hood – full-duplex relay transfers, PAKE-based encryption, and even how to self-host your own relay server.
