BitTorrent & P2P File Sharing

33 repos

Libraries and applications for peer-to-peer file sharing, primarily implementing or extending the BitTorrent protocol. The cluster is heavily weighted toward JavaScript implementations (20 repos), particularly WebTorrent—a browser-based variant that runs torrenting in web environments—alongside Go and other language ports. You'll find protocol implementations, torrent clients, tracker systems, and discovery mechanisms that collectively cover the full stack of building decentralized file-sharing applications.
