  • transgui

    🧲 A feature rich cross platform Transmission BitTorrent client. Faster and has more functionality than the built-in web GUI.

  • If someone asks me to install a Torrent client on a single machine, my favorite would be QBittorrent, however at home I use XigmaNAS' Transmission client extensively, and operate it from other machines in the LAN using the Transgui interface (also available on Windows and MacOS). This allows me to turn off everything but the NAS, which with all RAID disks spun down and a TDP of 15 Watts makes for some good energy savings.

  • Transmission

    Official Transmission BitTorrent client repository

  • picotorrent

    A tiny, hackable BitTorrent client.

  • Love Transmission but went to picotorrent a few years ago, even smaller footprint https://github.com/picotorrent/picotorrent

  • docker-transmission-openvpn

    Docker container running Transmission torrent client with WebUI over an OpenVPN tunnel

  • This is a plug-and-play solution bundling Transmission and the most common VPN configurations in a Docker container, ensuring that all torrent traffic goes via an active VPN connection. After configuring it, you just run "docker-compose up" and can then access Transmission via its web UI. It could be nice to have this built into the client, but using a container feels safer.

  • stig

    TUI and CLI for the BitTorrent client Transmission

  • I was greatly disappointed too when I found out about transmission-cli's deprecation, but I have since found and replaced all uses of it with stig[1] which, for me, does the same thing and more.

  • server

    A tiny, hackable BitTorrent client for servers and seedboxes. (by picotorrent)

  • Moved to GHCR it seems https://github.com/picotorrent/server/pkgs/container/server

  • webtorrent-desktop

    ❤️ Streaming torrent app for Mac, Windows, and Linux

  • Sparkle

    A software update framework for macOS

  • sql.js-httpvfs

    Hosting read-only SQLite databases on static file hosters like Github Pages

  • Oh that’s an interesting idea. I saw someone built SQLite over HTTP with the Range header: https://phiresky.github.io/blog/2021/hosting-sqlite-database...

    So presumably in a similar manner as https://github.com/phiresky/sql.js-httpvfs you could map SQLite pages to leaf torrents too and get the chunking you are looking for.
