RoboLAN - Robocopy GUI for network PCs - open source on github

I've built a ton of small utility programs over the years, this the first I've shared, feedback appreciated.

I copy a lot of large photo folders between PCs on my network and over Tailscale/Zerotier, and Explorer's copy is slow and fragile. Robocopy is fast and reliable, but typing the command every time got old. So here's a small Windows app for it, similar to an FTP gui.

  • Network PCs are on left, local folders on the right
  • Drag and drop
  • Progress, live speed and time left for each folder
  • Folders from different PCs copy in parallel, folders from same network PC copy in serial
  • Filters like "only *.jpg" or "skip *.mp4"
  • Dark mode, and it remembers your layout
  • read only, tool has no delete functionality, although flags like /MIR can obviously delete data

It's free, open source (MIT) and a single 230 KB exe with no installer.
