Description
dropctl is a free, no-signup file sharing tool. Upload a file or a bundle of files and get a short link plus a QR code. Choose your own slug, set an expiry up to 7 days (default 24h), and the file is cleaned up automatically. Multi-file uploads are zipped in your browser, and the recipient can pick which files to download.
