Quickstart
Install biga, connect to a server, and share a folder live.
Install the CLI
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/biga-app/cli/main/install.sh | shStart a broadcast
You need a running biga server. Choose where to broadcast before starting the CLI.
Ask the server operator for its URL and an access key if the server requires one. From the folder you want to share, replace the example URL with that server's URL.
biga start --api-url https://biga.example.comFor a server that requires a key, set BIGA_ACCESS_KEY before you run the command.
See configuration.
biga uploads the folder, prints a link, and streams changes until you stop it.
Send the link
Press c in the live panel to copy it, or o to open it
yourself. Anyone who can reach the server and has the link can follow along as
you save. A link on localhost opens only on the machine running the server.
Stop, and pick it back up
Press q to stop. Running the same start command in the same folder later rejoins the same session, so a link you already shared keeps working, and only what changed while you were away is uploaded.
