About

SnapClone is a serverless, peer-to-peer snap messenger built on Qt 6. No account registration or central server required — peers discover each other automatically on the local network via a gossip protocol, and communicate directly over encrypted WebSocket connections. Features: - Camera-first fullscreen UI — point and snap - LAN peer discovery via UDP gossip (no router/server needed) - End-to-end encrypted payloads - Ephemeral snaps with configurable expiry - Network diagnostics with one-click firewall fix commands - Automatic firewall port opening via D-Bus (firewalld / UFW)
