## File sharing with Dat

Dat is a peer-to-peer file sharing technology. It means we can share our files
between our computers without using services like WeTransfer and Google Drive.
It is still an experimental technology but it's getting there.

We're still waiting on the newer more reliable version of [Dat desktop](https://github.com/datproject/dat-desktop/pull/649)
to be released. Until that day comes, we have to use the command-line interface. Luckily,
it's very easy to install.

To get started, just download and unzip this file for your operating system:
[GNU/Linux](https://github.com/datproject/dat/releases/download/v14.0.2/dat-14.0.2-linux-x64.zip),
[MacOS](https://github.com/datproject/dat/releases/download/v14.0.2/dat-14.0.2-macos-x64.zip)
or [Windows](https://github.com/datproject/dat/releases/download/v14.0.2/dat-14.0.2-win-x64.zip).
Then you can run the `dat` binary in the unzipped folder. On GNU/Linux, that
might look like the following commands.

```bash
$ curl -sOL https://github.com/datproject/dat/releases/download/v14.0.2/dat-14.0.2-linux-x64.zip
$ unzip dat-14.0.2-linux-x64.zip
$ cd dat-14.0.2-linux-x64
$ ./dat --version   # just testing...
```

Then, creating a new Dat is as easy as the following.

```bash
$ dat create myfolder
```

Where `myfolder` is the folder you want to share with friends.

See the [Dat usage documentation](https://github.com/datproject/dat#usage) for more.
