Just reading through the steps there is a lot to get set up and sharing. You may need to consider simplification to on board more people. Looks like it could be put into a Docker container for setup. Did you want a hand with that?
Thanks for the feedback!
A docker could make the setup run, and if I rework where I store the data (now it’s in the same folder as the listener so it needs a special tweak in the docker files) but the problem is the 10f executable that you use to share files with, it’s a command line app so it would be weird to put that in a docker IMO.
Also, using docker images isn’t really simple?
You are right though, simpler is better.
What do you think about a setup script instead? Like
forward a port to your PC
run the setup script with your public IP:PORT (or just the port and let the script auto-detect the IP)
start the listener
Or should I still work on that? I can make a gui that helps setting everything up and run I guess.
