Show HN: I was curious about spherical helix, ended up making this visualization (visualrambling.space)

I built a desktop app for encrypting and decrypting files or directories using AES-GCM, with support for AES hardware instructions for better performance. It has a easy/straightforward GUI.

The motivation was lack of free/open source desktop tools offering both GCM mode and hardware acceleration out of the box.

Repo: https://github.com/constantin9845/File-lock-desktop

Would love feedback and suggestions for features and what you’d want in a desktop encryption tool.
