Protocol & roadmap

The normative tunnel spec and where xPort is heading next.

Early development

xPort is under active development. Port tunneling, file/folder sharing, paste, receive mode, secrets, account login, branded share pages, custom domains (BYOD), and traffic policies all work end-to-end today — hosted and self-hosted. Planned next: zero-knowledge encryption (Phase 2), server-side share lists, and more — see the roadmap.
