Cloud Torrent is a self-hosted remote torrent client written in Go, distributed as a single cross-platform binary. Torrents are started via a web UI and downloaded files are served over HTTP for retrieval or streaming.

Use cases

  • run a torrent client on a remote server and download files over the web
  • stream torrent downloads directly from a VPS via HTTP
  • self-host a mobile-friendly torrent web interface
  • search and start torrents from a browser
  • deploy a torrent downloader with Docker on a cheap cloud server

When to choose

  • you want a lightweight single-binary torrent client with a web UI on a server
  • you need to retrieve or stream downloaded files over HTTP from anywhere
  • you want embedded torrent search and real-time updates in a self-hosted tool

When to avoid

  • you need a full-featured desktop torrent client with fine-grained controls
  • you require advanced features like RSS automation, sequential downloading, or proxy/VPN integration
  • you need a client with a large plugin ecosystem or active feature development beyond core torrenting
