WebTorrent CLI is a command-line interface for the WebTorrent protocol, enabling users to stream, download, and seed torrents directly from the terminal using Node.js. It supports both traditional BitTorrent and WebTorrent peers, bridging the gap between desktop clients and browser-based peers. With a simple and intuitive interface, WebTorrent CLI allows users to instantly stream videos (especially with built-in support for VLC, MPV, and Chromecast), making it ideal for media consumption without waiting for full downloads. It’s a handy tool for developers, media sharers, or anyone who wants quick torrent access without a GUI.
