wormhole-gui

Wormhole-gui is a cross-platform graphical interface for magic-wormhole that lets you easily share files, folders and text between devices. It uses the Go implementation of magic-wormhole, called wormhole-william, and compiles statically into a single binary. Wormhole-gui is compatible with the cli applications from both wormhole-william and magic-wormhole.

Built using the following Go modules:

fyne (version 2.0.1)
wormhole-william (version 1.0.5)
compress (version 1.11.7)

The initial version was built in less than one day to show how quick and easy it is to use fyne for developing applications.

Sponsoring

Wormhole-gui an open source project that is provided free of charge and that will continue to be the case forever. If you use wormhole-gui and appreciate the work being put into it, please consider supporting the development through GitHub Sponsors. This is in no way a requirement, but would be greatly appreciated and would allow for even more improvements to come further down the road.

Requirements

Wormhole-gui compiles into a statically linked binary with no runtime dependencies. Compiling requires a Go compiler (1.14 or later) and the prerequisites for Fyne.

NOTE: Wormhole-gui can be built to run natively on Apple silicon (darwin/arm64, M1) when paired with Go 1.16 or later. However, release binaires not yet available, but regular darwin/amd64 binaires should work through Rosetta 2 in the meantime.

Downloads

Please visit the release page for downloading the latest releases. Versions for Linux (x86-64 and arm64), FreeBSD, MacOS and Windows (x86-64) are available.

Building

Systems with the compile-time requirements satisfied can build the project using go build in the project root:

go build

The project can also be built and installed using GNU Make (installing is currently only supported on Linux and BSD):

make
sudo make install
