webtorrent-cli - WebTorrent, the streaming torrent client. For the command line.

•    Javascript

---

WebTorrent is the first BitTorrent client that works in the browser, but webtorrent-cli, i.e. THIS PACKAGE, is for using WebTorrent from the command line. webtorrent-cli is a simple torrent client for use in node.js, as a command line app. It uses TCP and UDP to talk to other torrent clients.

webtorrent - ⚡️ Streaming torrent client for the web

•    Javascript

---

WebTorrent is a streaming torrent client for node.js and the browser. YEP, THAT'S RIGHT. THE BROWSER. It's written completely in JavaScript – the language of the web – so the same code works in both runtimes. In node.js, this module is a simple torrent client, using TCP and UDP to talk to other torrent clients.

webtorrent-hybrid - WebTorrent (with WebRTC support in Node.js)

•    Javascript

---

In node.js, the webtorrent package only connects to normal TCP/UDP peers, not WebRTC peers. If you want to connect to all types of peers, including WebRTC peers, from node.js, you need to use this package (webtorrent-hybrid). Previous versions (0.x) of this package used wrtc, a WebRTC implementation via native extensions, the current one is based on electron-webrtc (which in turn uses electron-prebuilt) for better compatibility. It creates a hidden Electron process (which is based on Chromium, so WebRTC support is great!) and communicates with that process to enable WebRTC in Node.js. This adds a lot of overhead, so we are looking forward to using a pure JavaScript implementation, like perhaps Node-RTCPeerConnection when it's ready.

PeerTube - Decentralized video streaming platform using P2P (BitTorrent) directly in the web browser with WebTorrent.

•    TypeScript

---

PeerTube is a decentralized video streaming platform using P2P (BitTorrent) directly in the web browser with WebTorrent. It is difficult to build a FOSS video streaming alternatives to YouTube, Dailymotion, Vimeo... with a centralized software. One organization alone cannot have enough money to pay bandwidth and video storage of its server. So there is a need of decentralized network (as Diaspora for example). But it's not enough because one video could become famous and overload the server. It's the reason why P2P protocol is used to limit the server load.

CacheP2P - "More users = More capacity"

•    Javascript

---

CacheP2P is a highly distributed cache platform based on WebTorrent and runs only in the browser. It is a javascript library that once included in a website, makes every new user a mirror of the specific URL he has opened and allows it to serve it to all the other users that also are accessing the same website, so the website's server doesn't have to.

Sharedrop - Easy P2P file transfer powered by WebRTC - inspired by Apple AirDrop

•    Javascript

---

ShareDrop is a web application inspired by Apple AirDrop service. It allows you to transfer files directly between devices, without having to upload them to any server first. It uses WebRTC for secure peer-to-peer file transfer and Firebase for presence management and WebRTC signaling.

bittorrent-tracker - 🌊 Simple, robust, BitTorrent tracker (client & server) implementation

•    Javascript

---

Node.js implementation of a BitTorrent tracker, client and server. A BitTorrent tracker is a web service which responds to requests from BitTorrent clients. The requests include metrics from clients that help the tracker keep overall statistics about the torrent. The response includes a peer list that helps the client participate in the torrent swarm.

filepizza - :pizza: Peer-to-peer file transfers in your browser

•    Javascript

---

Cooked up by Alex Kern & Neeraj Baid while eating Sliver @ UC Berkeley. Using WebRTC, FilePizza eliminates the initial upload step required by other web-based file sharing services. When senders initialize a transfer, they receive a "tempalink" they can distribute to recipients. Upon visiting this link, recipients' browsers connect directly to the sender’s browser and may begin downloading the selected file. Because data is never stored in an intermediary server, the transfer is fast, private, and secure.

Syncthing - Open Source Continuous File Synchronization

Syncthing replaces proprietary sync and cloud services with something open, trustworthy and decentralized. Your data is your data alone and you deserve to choose where it is stored, if it is shared with some third party and how it's transmitted over the Internet.

wave-share - Serverless, peer-to-peer, local file sharing through sound

•    C++

---

A proof-of-concept for WebRTC signaling using sound. Works with all devices that have microphone + speakers. Runs in the browser. Nearby devices negotiate the WebRTC connection by exchanging the necessary Session Description Protocol (SDP) data via a sequence of audio tones. Upon successful negotiation, a local WebRTC connection is established between the browsers allowing data to be exchanged via LAN.

hlsjs-p2p-engine - A free hls

•    Javascript

---

All domain names that are not bound in the management system (https://oms.cdnbye.com) will stop providing P2P services. Please bind your domain names in time to avoid being affected. Put the quick-start.html in your web page, run it. Wait for a few seconds，then open the same page from another browser. Now you have a direct P2P connection between two browsers without plugin! The first web peer will serve as a seed, if no one else in the same channel.
