Repository files navigation

Dropbox Window

Scan a QR code on your phone to upload files on an untrusted PC.

Note: This software is in alpha state. I know some things are broken, I'll fix them eventually.

Usage

If you're in an internet cafe or library, you can backup your files to your Dropbox easily, without entering your credentials on an untrusted computer.

Point the browser to Dropbox Window and scan the QR code with your phone. Grant access on your phone, and voila! You can upload files by simply dragging and dropping. Deauthorize using either the browser or your phone. Your password is safe with you.

Read more about it on my Medium.
