Motrix is a modern, full‑featured download manager built with Electron, React and TypeScript. It supports HTTP, FTP, BitTorrent, magnet links and can run as a desktop app or headless server.
Use cases
- Download large files over HTTP or FTP with pause/resume support
- Manage BitTorrent and magnet link downloads with per‑file selection
- Run Motrix on a headless server or NAS via Docker for unattended downloads
- Integrate browser extensions or command‑line tools to send links to Motrix
- Organize and prioritize multiple download tasks in a single UI
When to choose
- You need a cross‑platform GUI download manager with advanced torrent features
- You prefer a self‑hosted solution that can also run headlessly on a server
- You want integration with browser extensions or custom scripts via MDXP/JSON‑RPC
- You require a lightweight, open‑source alternative to commercial download managers
When to avoid
- You need a download manager that runs on mobile devices (iOS/Android)
- You require built‑in cloud storage integration or remote file syncing
- You prefer a pure command‑line only tool without a graphical interface
