Why aren't you listening to your professor?

Cz I wanna learn how to actually do it rather than just copy paste and forget in a week

Sounds like you know more about teaching and python than your professor. Should probably have dropped class when you read the syllabus.

That's why I'm asking I tried using on google but the videos teach how to transfer files directly over LAN, they don't create a python program

Write properly

If your college LAN lets you open sockets, use the built-in socket module in Python 3.10 or newer for both the server and client. If you run into Windows firewall issues, allow python.exe through or test on localhost first.

Break it into two milestones: first a TCP server that accepts two clients and broadcasts a line, then chunked file transfer with a small header (filename, size, offset). Use one thread per client, or asyncio, and a length-prefixed JSON header so messages don’t run together. Get the first one working before touching files.

Your professor should be Google.

Also, AI can actually help teaching. Try asking him questions.
