They are terrible at explaining what it is. Can I download torrents directly in the browser? Is it an UI to some underlying service? Can I seed with pure JS?

- kh_hk 12y agoAs far as I know you need a client running (torque, or µTorrent (+ a browser extension?)) and then you can interact with it using btapp.js Last time I checked there was no torque support for Linux (yet). I do agree, they are terrible at explaining what they have.
- Touche 12y agoThey also don't explain what Torque is.
- kiksy 12y agoExactly this, I thought "torrents in the browser in a js app? Sounds good!" , but itlooks like its a clunky web interface (that you need to install) for a headless torrent client (that you need to install).
