I mostly work and play within the Apple ecosystem and AirDrop, Continuity and other integration between devices is extremely useful and convenient. My son recently converted himself to Linux and started to miss the ability to easily move photos, text, or url between his phone and his Linux computer. Being a hacker himself, he thought it would be a great idea to devise an app that let’s you move information from your phone to your computer, and more generally a “cross platform AirDrop substitute for geeks”…

Of course, one solution would be to google and figure out if such an app exists, but where is the fun in that? We decided to take on a Father-Son new project and build our own solution.
