FLUXY is a fast file transfer tool for local area networks, supporting Windows, macOS, and Linux. It aims to provide a smooth file exchange experience, particularly for frequent file transfers between mobile phones and computers.
Before developing the mobile app, files could only be uploaded and received through the mobile browser. To improve the upload experience, it is recommended to use Edge, Chrome, Firefox, or QQ Browser.
The key features that distinguish this software from other similar tools:

The default save path is ~/Downloads/alley, which can be modified.
After selecting the send mode, you can drag the files to be sent into the software window through the file manager, and then click the confirm button to generate a QR code. Scan the QR code with your mobile device to open the list of files sent from the PC, and click the file name to save the file to your mobile phone.
Due to limitations of mobile operating systems, mobile browsers cannot implement batch downloads, and can only download files one by one.

Because FLUXY is not signed by an Apple developer, there may be a system trust issue. You can force trust the program using the following command:
sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/fluxy.appAfter closing the terminal, you should be able to open the program normally.
The frontend pages use the system WebView for rendering, and the cache files are also created by the system WebView. When the cache takes up a large amount of disk space, you can delete the cache directory using some cleanup tools or manually, without affecting the program's operation.
