What it does
qrcp starts a temporary local web endpoint and prints a QR code so a phone browser can download or upload files over Wi-Fi.
Run qrcp with a file or folder, then scan the printed QR code on the phone to open its download URL. Receive mode presents an upload page and can save into a specified output directory; otherwise it uses the current directory. The URL uses the computer’s network address and port, so the phone must reach that endpoint. The default server exits after a transfer unless keep-alive is enabled. HTTP is the default; HTTPS is an optional configuration requiring a TLS certificate and key.
