So this new project of mine centres on the ability to be able to easily upload files from the command line. WHY? As a daily linux user I find it frustrating that in order to share files I with have to open a browser, type a url, click upload which is fine for a local system but for a remote headless system it’s just not viable.
Another issue is that some file hosters require special software to be installed in order to upload. After working with may different linux/unix flavours as well as routers os’s like openwrt and busybox all of which come with a basic set of software tools I found curl to be the most common in base installs hence the reason shunt.io is based around it.
