# Nearby Sharing (`NearShare`)
This repo contains a fully functional implementation of the [`MS-CDP`](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/openspecs/windows_protocols/ms-cdp) and `NearShare` protocol that powers the `Windows 10+` built-in sharing functionality (Aka [`Project Rome`](https://github.com/microsoft/project-rome)).
> [!NOTE]
> This repository contains a fully functional `Android` app that serves as a frontend of `libCdp`.
> You can visit [nearshare.shortdev.de](https://nearshare.shortdev.de) for download and setup instructions.
> [!TIP]
> For other platforms have a look at the [other repositories](https://github.com/nearby-sharing)!
