What is qrcp?
qrcp is a command-line utility that facilitates fast file transfers over a local Wi-Fi network using QR codes. It creates a temporary web server on your computer, generates a QR code with the server's URL, and allows mobile devices to download or upload files by scanning the code with any QR reader app. It solves the problem of cumbersome file sharing between computers and mobile devices without requiring cables, external apps, or cloud services.
Developers, IT professionals, and power users who frequently need to transfer files between their computer and mobile device in a local environment and prefer terminal-based tools.
Developers choose qrcp for its extreme simplicity, zero configuration for basic use, and elimination of dependencies on external applications or accounts. Its unique selling point is enabling seamless bi-directional file transfers directly from the terminal with just a QR code scan.
