In 2013, I started https://webtorrent.io the first torrent client that runs in a web browser. It’s open source here: https://github.com/webtorrent

I built it to make torrent technology more accessible to the masses. We’re still actively building it and we even have a slick desktop app that uses the same engine for streaming.

WebTorrent also powers https://wormhole.app an end-to-end encrypted file sending service that I built with my friend jhiesey.
