      1 # Send Over HTTP
      2 
      3 Share a file with someone on your local network using QR Code.
      4 
      5 Inspired by the android app [Share Via HTTP](https://github.com/marcosdiez/shareviahttp).
      6 
      7 ## Benefits
      8 
      9  - Files are shared directly over the local network.  An internet connection is
     10    not required.
     11  - Others can receive the file without installing any special applications.
     12 
     13 ## Downsides
     14 
     15  - Others may be able to see the file as the file transfer is not encrypted.
     16  - Some networks, at bars and cafes, will block connecting to others.
