In plain words
Exatorrent is a self-hosted torrent client built with Go programming language. It allows users to run their own torrent application on personal servers rather than relying on third-party services. The software is designed for people who want direct control over their torrent downloads and prefer to manage the application themselves. Being open-source and self-hostable, it appeals to users seeking privacy and independence from centralized torrent platforms.

I wrote a new BitTorrent tracker in Elixir2025 · github.com · ▲394Hello everyone! I'm currently in a journey to learn and improve my Elixir and Go skills (my daily job uses C++) and looking through my backlog for projects to take on I decided Elixir is the perfect language to write a highly-parallel BitTorrent tracker. So I have spent my free time these last 3 months writing one! Now I think it has enough features to present it to the world (and a docker image to give it a quick try). I know some people see trackers as relics of the past now that DHT and PEX are common but I think they still serve a purpose in today's Internet (purely talking about public…

hTorrent – A HTTP to BitTorrent gateway with seeking written in Go2022 · github.com · ▲46Hey HN! I just released hTorrent, a gateway that allows for retrieving torrents through a plain HTTP interface. It supports seeking, which means that it can be used to stream media directly using e.g. MPV without having to wait for the download to complete. I'd love to get your feedback :)

Hey all My name is Sindre, and I am the CTO of Scrimba (YC S20). For the last 7 years, I have written all my web apps in a full-stack programming language called Imba. It compiles to JavaScript and its main goal is to make web developers more productive. I just launched a major overhaul of Imba, so I wanted to share it here on HN, in case anyone are interested in learning more about it. It is very opinionated, so some of you might not like it, but I would love to hear anyones feedback regardless. Constructive criticism appreciated! The backstory: Imba initially started in 2012 as an effort…

Hello HN, Over the last year we've been building ente[1], a privacy-friendly, easy-to-use alternative to Google Photos. We've so far built Android[2][3], iOS[4], web[5] apps that encrypt your files and back them up in the background. You can access these across your devices, and share them with other ente users, end-to-end encrypted. You can also use our electron app[6] to maintain a local copy of your backed up files. We've built a fault-tolerant data replication layer that replicates your data to two different storage providers in the EU. We will be providing additional replicas as an…
