## What it is
Magnetissimo is a self-hosted Elixir/Phoenix web application that crawls popular torrent sites and indexes magnet links into a local Postgres database. It provides a no-JavaScript web UI plus a JSON API for searching and retrieving the latest indexed torrents.

## Use cases
- self-host a torrent search engine that aggregates multiple torrent sites
- search magnet links across trackers from one local web UI
- provide a torrent index API for Sonarr or Radarr (Jackett/Prowlarr-style use)
- crawl and store torrent metadata in a local database
- query latest indexed torrents via a JSON endpoint

## When to choose
- you want a simple, self-hosted torrent indexer with minimal configuration
- you prefer a server-rendered, JavaScript-free web UI
- you want an Elixir/Phoenix codebase that is easy to read and extend
- you need a JSON search API to feed automation tools like Sonarr/Radarr

## When to avoid
- you need Jackett/Prowlarr-level tracker coverage or proxy/flaresolver support
- you cannot run Postgres alongside the app
- you need private tracker authentication or RSS-based indexer support
- you want a mature project with frequent releases and active maintenance guarantees
