Based on Mozilla's [Firefox Send](https://github.com/mozilla/send),
with branding removed.
A fork of Mozilla's [Firefox Send][mozilla-send].
Mozilla discontinued Send, this fork is a community effort to keep the project
up-to-date and alive.
- Forked [at][fork-commit] Mozilla's latest public version
- _Mozilla_ & _Firefox_ branding [is][remove-branding-pr] removed so you can legally self-host
- Kept compatible with [`ffsend`][ffsend] (CLI for Send)
- Dependencies have been updated
- Mozilla's [changes][mozilla-patches] since the fork have been selectively [mozilla-patches-pr][merged]
- Mozilla's experimental report feature, download tokens, trust warnings and FxA changes are not included
Find an up-to-date Docker image here: [docs/docker.md](docs/docker.md)
Find the original archived project by Mozilla [here][mozilla-send].
The [`mozilla-master`][branch-mozilla-master] branch holds the `master` branch
as left by Mozilla.
The [`send-v3`][branch-send-v3] branch holds the commit tree of Mozilla's last
public version, which this fork is based on.
The [`send-v4`][branch-send-v4] branch holds the commit tree of Mozilla's last
experimental version which was still a work in progress (featuring file
reporting, download tokens, trust warnings and FxA changes), this has
selectively been merged into this fork.
Thanks [Mozilla][mozilla] for building this amazing tool!
