BaantLo
Transfer Files and Feelings
The problem BaantLo solves
BaantLo is an app developed to make file transferring easier, free and secure in India. Currently, there are no viable solutions for cross-platform and secure file transfers, BaantLo solves this using P2P (Peer-to-peer) connection technology, which involves hosting a temporary server on the sender's device and then using that to transfer files to the recipient. Due to not requiring an external server, BaantLo is free and secure as the data cannot be accessed by anyone except the sender and receiver. For extra security, BaantLo uses a randomized QR Code and UID generator, making it so only the intended people can send files to you.
Challenges we ran into
While there weren't any specific major bugs, for our main developers, this was our first time using Kivy, making it a bit challenging since we had to both learn Kivy as well as figure out how to implement the features we wanted in the app.
