There are many like it, but this is a quite simple application. Useful tool.
Use case: you want to copy files/folders from a host to another, but you don't want to start off with googling (again) the syntax for scp/rsync, or mess with paths.
You just want to "tjo send ." and "tjo get *". Security doesn't matter, since it's known hosts, and local network, and the files doesn't matter.
There are alternatives, but had various trouble with most of them. Magic-wormhole had potential but failed install on win/cygwin.
canute has the downside in that it doesn't have a discovery phase, so you still have to know the IP of the server, but that's fine for me.
