This 'magic' is called Syncthing -- a cross platform app. It is an easy and quick app to transfer your photos and everything between devices just like the proprietary software SHAREit  but with privacy and security for you.

Here's my review of Linux Mint 20, the user friendly computer operating system from Ireland, Europe, released June this year, named Ulyana, and is also a Long Term Support version. This major release happened two months after its basis, Ubuntu Focal Fossa, and two years after the previous Linux Mint 19 Tara LTS, released. It brings a new star feature, called Warpinator, which enables us to share files between laptops easily via wifi hotspot, along with other features. It comes with great news too as now it shipped as their third generation branded computer MintBox3. I do this review using my Lenovo ThinkPad laptop with my favorite edition selection Cinnamon.

Do you want to share files (copy, move, rename, delete, create directory) between two laptops? Do you need the fastest way? When there are only two laptops, it is slow if you must config Samba first. Instead, you can just use SFTP over a wifi hotspot to copy or move data from one to another laptop. You can do it all via Nautilus or another GUI file manager. It is easy to do. The requirement is just openssh-server installed in one laptop. I use Ubuntu as client and Blankon as server in this example.
