About

Glass Desktop Box is Windows software for organizing local files in visual workspaces and sharing selected files or folders. Users arrange items in customizable Desktop Boxes, create tabs and folder links, add notes, and choose static or animated backgrounds. A Windows host can invite colleagues, clients, or friends to access a shared workspace or exchange files through a browser link; guests can upload and download without installing the desktop app or creating an account. Transfers use a direct peer-to-peer connection when possible, with a relay fallback, and shared files are not kept in permanent cloud storage. PIN-protected access and live chat are available during sharing. The software serves individuals and teams that want to organize projects locally while sharing files across devices. The host application runs on Windows; recipients can join using browsers on Windows, Mac, Linux, iPhone, iPad, or Android.

About

qURL helps developers, IT admins, and small teams share local web apps, APIs, and files without deploying them. Its command-line client publishes a service running on a computer and provides a link governed by an access policy: publishers can invite people, approve requests, verify email addresses, or allow anyone with the link. The app stays on the publisher’s computer without a public network address. qURL’s CLI supports macOS, Linux, and Windows, while qURL Desktop for macOS shares files and folders for browser-based recipients. An optional MCP server gives compatible AI clients tools to create and manage links through qURL’s API. The no-account tier allows up to three active shares; a free account allows up to ten active shares and 10 GiB of monthly traffic during early access. Common uses include development previews, private demos, client reviews, and sharing files from a computer.
