CodeDrop is a cross-PC clipboard synchronization tool built as an Electron desktop application. It enables multiple devices to share clipboard content in real time within a defined group or "room."

With CodeDrop, you can:

• Create a room and share a 4-digit code to sync clipboards.
• Choose between one-way and two-way clipboard synchronization.
• Approve or reject join requests from new devices.
• Toggle clipboard sync like a desktop extension.

✅ Room-Based Clipboard Syncing – A root device creates a room, and others join with a 4-digit code.
✅ Two Sync Modes – Choose One-Way Sync (root device shares only) or Two-Way Sync (all devices share).
✅ Join Request Authorization – Root device approves or denies new devices joining.
✅ Desktop Extension-Like UI – Runs in the background with a system tray option.
✅ Secure & Fast – Uses MongoDB, WebSockets, and Electron for real-time updates.
