LAN File Transfer Website

Using React, this website allows users to upload, download and view stored files from within a local network. See website/ for all website code.

API Gateway

This handles requests from the React client to fetch files and their metadata. The API Gateway is be written in Node and splits HTTP requests between the two backend services. See api-gateway/ for API Gateway code.

File Logging Service

File Storing Service

Written in C++, this service reads and writes bytestreams to storage. Using @meltwater's served library, listens for incoming HTTP requests from the API Gateway. See file-service/ for File Storing Service code.
