## Documentation

# Deploy and Host PairDrop on Railway

[PairDrop](https://github.com/schlagmichdoch/PairDrop) lets devices on the same network share files and messages directly in the browser, peer to peer.

## About Hosting PairDrop

This template runs the official `ghcr.io/schlagmichdoch/pairdrop` image. It is stateless: open the URL on two devices and they appear to each other. Transfers between different networks may need your own TURN server (see the PairDrop docs).

## Common Use Cases

- Move files between phone and laptop without cables or accounts
- Share text and links across devices
- Pair devices on different networks with a room code

## Dependencies for PairDrop Hosting

- One service

### Deployment Dependencies

- [PairDrop on GitHub](https://github.com/schlagmichdoch/PairDrop)
- [Docker image](https://github.com/schlagmichdoch/PairDrop/pkgs/container/pairdrop)

## Why Deploy PairDrop on Railway?

Railway gives you a public HTTPS URL and automatic restarts with no server to maintain.
