From Binary

Download the archive for your OS and architecture from the latest release. Extract it and place hey (hey.exe on Windows) in a directory on your PATH.

💻 Usage

Serve File/Folder

Drag and drop a file or folder onto the program, or use the command line:

hey ./path_to_file_want_to_serve

Receive Files

Simply start the program

Uploads start when files are selected. The server accepts up to three uploads at once across all clients; additional uploads wait for a slot. Set --upload-concurrency to change that limit. The web page supports cancellation, retry, and clearing completed transfers.

📝 Notes

• The file receiving URL opens a web page for uploading files, which will be saved in the program's working directory
• Multiple instances can run simultaneously without conflicts
