Hi,
I have tested the user-end functionality. It involves a simple process of uploading files and downloading them through direct links. Could you please provide more details? I'm actually searching for a peer-to-peer file sharing platform

Here is my idea

First, I'll upload a file to an online server (FileManager), and it will generate a unique URL for that file. This URL will be shared on any website / social media ETC

When the first user decides to download the file, it will be retrieved directly from the server since only one peer is involved.

As more users come in to download the file, the number of peers increases. For instance, when the second user arrives, the file will have two peers: the server and the first user who downloaded it. This means the second user will download the file from both the server and the first user.

Similarly, when a third user arrives, there will be three peers: the server, the first user, and the second user. This setup grows with more users, resulting in multiple peers for each download.

So if no one is downloading, MY server will always be available as the default peer. This idea is to make shared file peer active for a lifetime
