# Sendalo
## Web / mobile frontend for c2t
Sendalo is a web/mobile interface to an emscripten build of the excellent c2t-96h tool by datajerk (https://github.com/datajerk/c2t). c2t is a really clever program that allows transferring disk images to a running Apple II (among other things).
Why I think this is useful?
The ASCII Express site is fun and a great idea, but it has limited selection.
ADTPro is fantastic! But you need a running modern PC, and some means of bidirectional communication to make it work. Ethernet cards are expensive, serial not readily available and audio mic _input_ jacks are becoming difficult to find on modern laptops. And there is no mobile version.
c2t will work with just a simplex link, so all you need is an audio cable and there you go! But you still need another computer and typing commands in the terminal.
Finally, with this frontend you can unleash the power of c2t directly on your mobile device, with just an audio cable and no PC. Just paste the .dsk image URL from your favorite web archive, or upload your own, and the disk will be streamed over. Also nice on computers if you dont want to download executables or type commands.
c2t can do a lot more than this, dont forget to check the official project page on GitHub to learn more.
