Try +this out! +In our adventure with [First Look][1] series of articles, we found a secure and efficient method of transferring files between Linux and Windows systems. + +A tool called ' **Warp** ', a part of [**GNOME Circle**][2] featuring apps that extend the GNOME ecosystem. Warp facilitates the seamless transfer of files via the Internet or across a local network. + +Let's take a look at it. + +### Warp: Overview ⭐ + +![][3] + +Written primarily in the **Rust programming language** , Warp is a **GTK-based** file transfer app that uses the '[Magic Wormhole][4]' protocol to make file transfers over the internet/local networks possible. + +All file transfers are encrypted, and the receiver must **use a word-based code to access the files** , preventing any misuse. + +**Allow me to show you how it works.** + +When you launch the app for the first time, you are greeted with a welcome screen and a short intro to Warp. + +![][5] + +After proceeding, you are taken to the 'Send' menu, where you can select a file or folder to be sent. + +📋 + +You can also drag/drop files and folders into the app. + +![][6] + +After processing, a screen will show up with the transfer code in text and QR code form. You have to send it securely to the receiver, and they can start downloading the files. + +📋 + +As Warp is a **cross-platform app** , you can send files to and from Linux and Windows systems. + +**Suggested Read** 📖 + +![][7] + +![][8] + +**So, how does it look on the receiver's side?** + +Well, they must go into the ' **Receive** ' menu and paste the transmit code into the text box. They can also scan the QR code to copy the exact text onto their device. + +![][9] + +After they paste the code and click on ' **Receive File** ,' Warp will start connecting to the sender's device. + +![][10] + +If it is successful, you will be shown a ' **Connected to Peer** ' status. If not, something is wrong with the sender's or receiver's system/network. + +![][11] + +After a successful connection, the receiver can either choose ' **Accept** ' to save it to the ' **Downloads** ' folder of the system, or they can select ' **Save as** ' to save it in a location of their choice. + +**Suggested Read** 📖 + +![][7] + +![][12] + +And that's it. The receiver will be shown the following screen when a file transfer is complete: + +![][13] + +Users can also go into the ' **Preferences** ' menu under the three-ribbon icon to access advanced settings such as **setting the Rendezvous/Transit Server URL** or **setting the Code Words to a longer word count** for enhanced security. + +![][14] + +That's about it for Warp; it is **effortless and does the job well**. + +**Learn Rust Programming** 📖 + +![][15] + +### 📥 Get Warp + +Warp is available both for **Linux** and **Windows;** You can get the package of your choice or look at the source code on its [GitLab page][16]. + +**For Linux users,** you can get it from [Flathub][17]. + +[Warp (Flathub)][17] + +* * * + +### More from It's FOSS... + + * Learn Bash scripting for FREE with this [Bash Tutorial series][18]. + * Join our [community forum][19]. + * 📩 Stay updated with the latest on Linux and Open Source.
