Running a command on your local computer to upload files to your server is pretty easy on macOS or Linux where you can use scp:
scp -r /path/to/my/files root@:0.0.0.0:/path/on/my/server
or rsync
rsync -avz /path/to/my/files root@:0.0.0.0:/path/on/my/server
While there are versions of rsync and scp/sftp available for windows they are not installed by default and getting started with a GUI client like Filezilla might be an easier way to go.
