It comes in several flavors:\n  * A native macOS GUI application\n  * GTK+ and Qt GUI applications for Linux, BSD, etc.\n  * A Qt-based Windows-compatible GUI application\n  * A headless daemon for servers and routers\n  * A web UI for remote controlling any of the above\n  \nVisit https://transmissionbt.com/ for more information.\n\n## Documentation\n\n[Transmission's documentation](docs/README.md) is currently out-of-date, but the team has recently begun a new project to update it and is looking for volunteers. If you're interested, please feel free to submit pull requests!\n\n## Command line interface notes\n\nTransmission is fully supported in transmission-remote, the preferred cli client.\n\nThree standalone tools to examine, create, and edit .torrent files exist: transmission-show, transmission-create, and transmission-edit, respectively.\n\nPrior to development of transmission-remote, the standalone client transmission-cli was created. Limited to a single torrent at a time, transmission-cli is deprecated and exists primarily to support older hardware dependent upon it. In almost all instances, transmission-remote should be used instead.\n\nDifferent distributions may choose to package any or all of these tools in one or more separate packages.\n\n## Building\n\nTransmission has an Xcode project file (Transmission.xcodeproj) for building in Xcode.\n\nFor a more detailed description, and dependencies, visit [How to Build Transmission](docs/Building-Transmission.md) in docs\n\n### Building a Transmission release from the command line\n\n```bash\n$ tar xf transmission-4.0.6.tar.xz\n$ cd transmission-4.0.6\n# Use -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo to build optimized binary with debug information. (preferred)\n# Use -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release to build full optimized binary.\n$ cmake -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo\n$ cd build\n$ cmake --build .\n$ sudo cmake --install .\n```\n\n### Building Transmission from the nightly builds\n\nDownload a tarball from https://build.transmissionbt.com/job/trunk-linux/ and follow the steps from the previous section.\n\nIf you're new to building programs from source code, this is typically easier than building from Git.\n\n### Building Transmission from Git (first time)\n\n```bash\n$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/transmission/transmission Transmission\n$ cd Transmission\n# Use -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo to build optimized binary with debug information. (preferred)\n# Use -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release to build full optimized binary.\n$ cmake -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo\n$ cd build\n$ cmake --build .\n$ sudo cmake --install .\n```\n\n### Building Transmission from Git (updating)\n\n```bash\n$ cd Transmission/build\n$ cmake --build . -t clean\n$ git submodule foreach --recursive git clean -xfd\n$ git pull --rebase --prune\n$ git submodule update --init --recursive\n$ cmake --build .\n$ sudo cmake --install .\n```\n\n## Contributing\n\n### Code Style\n\nYou would want to setup your editor to make use of the .clang-format file located in the root of this repository and the eslint/prettier rules in web/package.json.\n\nIf for some reason you are unwilling or unable to do so, there is a shell script which you can use: `./code_style.sh`\n\n### Translations\n\nSee [language translations](docs/Translating.md).\n\n## Sponsors\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n \u003ctbody\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n   \u003ctd align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"[MacStadium]\" src=\"https://uploads-ssl.webflow.com/5ac3c046c82724970fc60918/5c019d917bba312af7553b49_MacStadium-developerlogo.png\" height=\"30\"/\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003emacOS CI builds are running on a M1 Mac Mini provided by \u003ca href=\"https://www.macstadium.com/company/opensource\"\u003eMacStadium\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\n  \u003c/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n   \u003ctd align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"[SignPath]\" src=\"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/34448643\" height=\"30\"/\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\n   \u003ctd\u003eFree code signing on Windows provided by \u003ca href=\"https://signpath.io/\"\u003eSignPath.io\u003c/a\u003e, certificate by \u003ca href=\"https://signpath.org/\"\u003eSignPath Foundation\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/td\u003e\n  \u003c/tr\u003e\n \u003c/tbody\u003e\n\u003c/table\u003e\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftransmission%2Ftransmission","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ftransmission%2Ftransmission","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftransmission%2Ftransmission/lists"}
