Just a note, there is a Go port of magic-wormhole that does properly interoperate with the official python version and has the benefit of not requiring a python environment: https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william


Oh neat, that's quite cool. I was hoping to write an Android app for magic-wormhole -- so you could share files with mobile devices. Packaging Go on Android is much nicer than Python, so I might revive that idea at some point.


I have a very (very) rough react-native frontend for this that runs on android. I've been waiting for the go-mobile module support to settle down a bit before cleaning it up and releasing it. Its probably about time for me to pick it back up again.

This is not to discourage others from building on top of wormhole-william. I built the public API[1] first and then added the CLI tool with the hope that others would be able to easily pick it up and use it in other applications.
