airshare is a cross-platform file sharing tool that transfers files between devices on the same local network. It uses mDNS for device discovery and generates a simple code that recipients use to receive files.
The tool provides a simple alternative to complex file sharing setups, requiring no server configuration or account creation.

Both devices must be on the same local network. Large files may take time to transfer depending on network speed. No encryption by default on older versions.

airshare was developed as a Python-based alternative to AirDrop for cross-platform local file sharing, leveraging mDNS for zero-configuration networking.
