I'll have to further read about that but in short if you have a computer like a server with a static ip that is easily accessible from the internet then because of the great job the author did you can host a relay simply by typing the command
```
croc relay
```
> croc relay
which will by default use the ports 9009-9013 but you can specify your own with the --ports arguement like
```
croc relay --ports 1111,1112
```
> croc relay --ports 1111,1112
Then if you make that into a systemd service (which I won't be covering just yet cause I don't really understand them and only make them by copy pasting basic templates 😐) it's basically a set and forget kind of thing and you can now send files to anyone in any operating system by using croc by typing
```
croc --relay "your.domain:9009" send [file]
```
> croc --relay "your.domain:9009" send [file]
and the recipient can download it by typing
```
croc --relay "your.domain:9009" [code]
```
> croc --relay "your.domain:9009" [code]
This is super useful cause there was a time when the public instance was down and I couldn't send files when it was just so easy to not be dependent on the public instance in the first place.
