AirPaste

The Project

Have you ever wanted to send a long text (for example An Ethereum wallet address or a long text document) to your phone from your computer? If yes I think you how inconvenient to send it via email or using other messaging apps. Then you copy and finally paste it. It can be a long process. The application I created makes this process faster and easier. AirPaste ensures fast communication between your devices on your local network. How does it work? There is a WebSocket server running in the background on the sender side. Every device has an IP address. This needs to be set on the application settings. You can see your device’s IP address in the application settings menu. You need to set it on the other devices. If you want two-way communication then you need to set it all of your devices.

What I found difficult and how I worked it out

The most difficult thing was coding the WebSocket server and client.

Next time, I would...

In the near future, I would like to add a QR code generator and a scanner, which makes the configuration part easier.
