Local Cargo Mehmet Ali Keskin

Use this command to install Local Cargo:

Secure, cross-platform local network folder synchronization daemon with end-to-end encryption.

LocalCargo

Secure, cross-platform, and blazing-fast local network folder synchronization.

LocalCargo allows you to seamlessly sync directories between Windows, macOS, and Linux devices over your local network. It runs quietly in the background as a system daemon and uses AES-256 end-to-end encryption to keep your files safe.

Features

Cross-Platform: Works natively on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Background Daemon: Starts automatically on boot and runs silently in the background.
End-to-End Encryption: All file transfers are secured with AES-256-CTR encryption.
Zero Configuration Hell: An easy-to-use CLI wizard sets up everything for you.
Self-Destruct Protocol: A clean remove command that wipes all traces and zombie processes from your system.
