MonoTorrent is a cross-platform .NET Standard 2.0 compatible library which implements the BitTorrent protocol. As a result, MonoTorrent can be compiled and executed on every major operating system, including smartphones, IoT or other mobile devices.[1]
The aim of this library is not to provide a rich graphical interface for users to interact with, but rather to provide a rich programming API to allow a developer to create a GUI using the library without having to worry about reinventing the wheel by implementing the BitTorrent specification themselves.[2]
As a result, this should allow developers to embed the library into a wide variety of applications with ease.[3]
The library was initially developed under the 2006 Google Summer of Code. It now resides in the public Git repository for Mono.
