https://github.com/schollz/croc is written in Go, doesn’t need an installer and has worked reasonably well for me on Windows.

croc does not interop with magic-wormhole but tries to accomplish the same thing.

I made croc because it was really hard to install wormhole on Windows (especially for my non-dev friends). Also I wanted croc to support resuming transfers which has been stalled in wormhole for awhile now. [1]

Why doesn't croc use magic-wormhole's protocol ? Obviously its selling point is in the ease of installation, performance and portability, it's too bad that in doing those the compatibility is lost.

There's also https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william. It's written in Go, doesn't need an installer and is compatible with the official wormhole client.

It does need binaries, though.

Fair. I'll get those added.
