  • Prowlarr

  • Magnetico

    Discontinued Autonomous (self-hosted) BitTorrent DHT search engine suite.

  • Magnetico[1] is an easy-to-use, self-hosted DHT crawler. It has a web UI that shows statistics and gives you a search engine (it uses sqlite full-text search).

    It needs quite a bit of bandwidth and some storage space, but worked well so far, for me. I've been running it for a couple of years and it indexed around 12.5M torrents (36GB of uncompressed database).

  • crystal

    The Crystal Programming Language

  • > It looks like Python/Ruby, runs really fast, and uses very little resources.

    You should also check out Crystal, which had its 1.0 release earlier this year. From their homepage:

    > Crystal’s syntax is heavily inspired by Ruby’s, so it feels natural to read and easy to write, and has the added benefit of a lower learning curve for experienced Ruby devs.
