Warp: An Open-Source Secure File Sharing App That Works Cross-Platform
======
A seamless way to securely share files between Linux and Windows? Try
this out!
In our adventure with [First Look][1] series of articles, we found a secure and efficient method of transferring files between Linux and Windows systems.
A tool called ' **Warp** ', a part of [**GNOME Circle**][2] featuring apps that extend the GNOME ecosystem. Warp facilitates the seamless transfer of files via the Internet or across a local network.
Let's take a look at it.
### Warp: Overview ⭐
![][3]
Written primarily in the **Rust programming language** , Warp is a **GTK-based** file transfer app that uses the '[Magic Wormhole][4]' protocol to make file transfers over the internet/local networks possible.
All file transfers are encrypted, and the receiver must **use a word-based code to access the files** , preventing any misuse.
**Allow me to show you how it works.**
When you launch the app for the first time, you are greeted with a welcome screen and a short intro to Warp.
![][5]
After proceeding, you are taken to the 'Send' menu, where you can select a file or folder to be sent.
📋
You can also drag/drop files and folders into the app.
![][6]
After processing, a screen will show up with the transfer code in text and QR code form. You have to send it securely to the receiver, and they can start downloading the files.
📋
As Warp is a **cross-platform app** , you can send files to and from Linux and Windows systems.

**So, how does it look on the receiver's side?**
Well, they must go into the ' **Receive** ' menu and paste the transmit code into the text box. They can also scan the QR code to copy the exact text onto their device.
![][9]
After they paste the code and click on ' **Receive File** ,' Warp will start connecting to the sender's device.
![][10]
If it is successful, you will be shown a ' **Connected to Peer** ' status. If not, something is wrong with the sender's or receiver's system/network.
![][11]
After a successful connection, the receiver can either choose ' **Accept** ' to save it to the ' **Downloads** ' folder of the system, or they can select ' **Save as** ' to save it in a location of their choice.

And that's it. The receiver will be shown the following screen when a file transfer is complete:
![][13]
Users can also go into the ' **Preferences** ' menu under the three-ribbon icon to access advanced settings such as **setting the Rendezvous/Transit Server URL** or **setting the Code Words to a longer word count** for enhanced security.
![][14]
That's about it for Warp; it is **effortless and does the job well**.

### 📥 Get Warp
Warp is available both for **Linux** and **Windows;** You can get the package of your choice or look at the source code on its [GitLab page][16].
**For Linux users,** you can get it from [Flathub][17].
