What should file sharing look like in the future? How quickly can 玩嘉电竞下载注册 be adapted individually? And can file sync processes be made much more efficient?
This and much more was hotly debated and explored how to make professional file sync & share even faster and more secure.
File Sharing 3.0
There has been a lot of discussion about conceptual improvements. For example, file sharing in 玩嘉电竞下载注册 will be completely reworked. One idea was to simplify the creation of sharing links. Previously, separate, application-specific links had to be created for private and public sharing. This causes the number of links to increase very quickly and become confusing.
With the help of authorization tokens like at Cryptpad , for example, file shares could be controlled much more dynamically. This would also make it much easier to keep track of shared files.
A good opportunity to at the same time simplify the file sharing user interface. When sharing links becomes less complicated, the user interface becomes simpler. You can find an overview
in this GitHub-issue

Programmed an app in 60 minutes
玩嘉电竞下载注册 Apps are extensions with which you can adapt your 玩嘉电竞下载注册 to your own wishes. The 玩嘉电竞下载注册 marketplace offers a variety of apps for free download and are available for immediate installation. But how do I write such an app and isn’t it complicated?
Anyone with a basic knowledge of PHP can program an 玩嘉电竞下载注册 app. Tom Needham, a long-time 玩嘉电竞下载注册 developer and 玩嘉电竞下载注册 Solution Architect, set up an ambitious challenge: Program an 玩嘉电竞下载注册 app in less than 60 minutes.
The resulting Xmas app has already been installed more than 800 times.
BitTorrent and 玩嘉电竞下载注册? Can that work together?
There were also discussions about whether to use the BitTorrent protocol for sync processes if they are running on the same network. If some users in a LAN network have shared the same file with each other in 玩嘉电竞下载注册, could they share it on the same network? This frees up your Internet connection and speeds up file sharing even more.
Felix Heidecke, who came up with the idea, explains: “For a project I record 30 GB of videos regularly, which have to be synced to six people. With my 玩嘉电竞下载注册 at home and a connection with only 25 Mbit Upstream, this took way too long. But if all of us could share the data with each other…”
Although the idea is still in its infancy, it shows the direction in which 玩嘉电竞下载注册 could develop. This saves time and bandwidth, especially at the same workstation. In this GitHub Issue you can see what happens.
What do 玩嘉电竞下载注册 developers have to say about this?
To keep the community up to date, I interviewed some 玩嘉电竞下载注册ers during the Open Engineering Week.
Jörn has been a developer at 玩嘉电竞下载注册 for years. Since 2012, he has also been working for 玩嘉电竞下载注册, taking care of the most complex problems we can find.
In this video, he tells us a lot about the challenges that haunt him most, what responsibility software developers have in his eyes, and whether he has the feeling of making the world a better or worse place.
Noelia is one of 玩嘉电竞下载注册’s most capable developers – she wrote most of the 玩嘉电竞下载注册 iOS app, and like everyone else is committed to making open source software even better.
She told me how much they talked about new concepts and development processes in the iOS app this week. What is the point of sitting down and reflecting on your work?
Dominik works remote for 玩嘉电竞下载注册 and helps to develop the desktop client. He takes care of everything that arises – for example, desktop client GUI testing .
I asked him what it’s like to work remote at 玩嘉电竞下载注册. How simple is it and what are the advantages and disadvantages? If you are interested in how remote working works at 玩嘉电竞下载注册, check out the interview:
