Patchy is an open source bittorrent client for Windows.
Patchy is powered by MonoTorrent.
Note: Patchy is currently a work in progress, and to use it now would be silly. Treat this section as "why should I use it when it's done"
Patchy is free and open source. Most Windows clients these days have become adware with premium versions and other similar saddening things. Patchy will never be like this - no ads, no extra software in the installer, and it comes with all the features, completely free.
Make sure you come back to get updates until auto-updating is added.
Feel free to file bug reports as GitHub Issues. Please be as descriptive as possible. You may also submit feature requests and ask questions through the same mechanism.
You can also join #patchy (irc://) on irc.freenode.net for assistance and Patchy-related discussion.
To compile Patchy, add C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319 to your PATH. Run msbuild from the
root of the repository to build.
Pull requests are welcome. Adhere to code standards already in use. Smaller, focused pull requests are more likely to be accepted than broad, sweeping ones.
Patchy uses the permissive MIT license. In a nutshell:
- You are not restricted on usage of Patchy; commercial, private, etc, all fine.
- The developers are not liable for what you do with it.
- Patchy is provided "as is" with no warranty.
