PairDrop is a cross-platform file sharing application and web-based tool for peer-to-peer data exchange. It enables the transfer of files and text messages between devices using a browser, operating without the need for user accounts or central storage. The project supports both local network file transfers and cross-device sharing over the internet. It provides methods for establishing connectivity through temporary rooms using shared short-codes, QR-code identity exchange, and persistent device pairing to maintain connections across different networks. Connectivity is managed via WebRTC pe
Signal-Desktop is a cross-platform messaging application that provides end-to-end encrypted communication. It implements the Signal Protocol to secure messages and voice calls, ensuring that only intended recipients can access content. The application manages asynchronous key exchange and session initialization to maintain secure communication channels between parties who are not online simultaneously. The project distinguishes itself through advanced cryptographic protections, including hybrid post-quantum security that combines classical elliptic curve cryptography with lattice-based algori
This project is a comprehensive computer networking textbook and instructional resource. It serves as a technical guide for the design and implementation of network layers, protocols, and hardware architecture, covering the spectrum from physical links to application-layer protocols. The content provides a detailed study of standards for congestion control, reliable data delivery, and internetwork routing. It includes specialized technical material on network security, public-key infrastructure, and the operation of modern cloud infrastructure and data centers. The material covers a broad ra
aiortc is a Python implementation of the WebRTC protocol, providing an asynchronous stack for real-time audio, video, and data streaming between peers. It functions as a media engine and data channel implementation that manages peer connections through a non-blocking framework. The library enables the establishment of direct peer-to-peer networking by negotiating session descriptions and connectivity paths. It facilitates secure, bidirectional data transmission via data channels and supports low-latency media streaming using standard codecs. The system includes capabilities for network NAT t
