## What it is
Swizzin is a collection of bash scripts providing a light, modular seedbox solution for Debian and Ubuntu servers, with an installer and a `box` management CLI. It packages torrent clients (rTorrent/ruTorrent, Deluge, qBittorrent, Transmission) plus media and utility apps like Plex, Sonarr, Radarr, and Nextcloud.

## Use cases
- set up a seedbox on a Debian or Ubuntu VPS
- install rtorrent and rutorrent with nginx on a server
- manage torrent client services from the command line
- deploy sonarr radarr and plex on a dedicated server
- add users and quotas to a shared seedbox
- unattended install of a media server stack

## When to choose
- you want a quick, script-based seedbox setup on Debian/Ubuntu without Docker
- you need a modular installer where you pick only the apps you want
- you run amd64 or arm64 hardware including Raspberry Pi
- you prefer a single CLI (box) for installing, removing, and updating services

## When to avoid
- you want a containerized or Docker-based deployment
- your server runs a non-Debian-based distribution like Fedora, Arch, or CentOS
- you need a graphical web panel as the primary management interface
- you are on a shared hosting environment without root access
