Ilix::[Simple File Transfer ☁]

Origin

I'm a Google Pixel phone user. If you have one you might know that a pixel phone allows to have multiple users.

While that great and all for my uses. I'm a little annoyed by the fact that these users are completely isolated from each another, no transmission is possible between the them....

The problem is that sometimes I want to transfer things from an user A to an user B (like a password, an image, an url) because each user have a very unique goal (one is for my social medias, the other for my security sensitives apps, the other for my banks app, etc etc...)

And as a programmer, my unique and most important goal is to spend 2-3 months creating a complex app to resolve a problem which is in fact not a problem (like seriously I could have installed any secure and privacy respecting file transfer software on my devices, but no, I want it the hard way~~)

But like always this was a very great experience. I learned a lot of valuable things (especially in rust) but I begin to feel that my knowledge is stagnating, I feel like I don't have anything else to learn in the web-dev space, or more like that now my programmation skills are mature enough (5 years already 😥) to be able to not struggle too much while writting code (I used to struggle a lot before, and was feeling so good when It finally worked, but now that not quite the same feeling). Don't know if it's a phase or something else, but I always want to surpass my limits, so for my future projects I want to exit my comfort zone (maybe something with less abstraction).

Purpose

  1. Having fun
  2. learning react native and how to make api with rust
  3. do a file sharing app, which is not simple (encryption, streams...)

Thus do not take this project seriously, it's just yet another stupid side project
