LeechCraft is a free open source cross-platform modular internet-client. LeechCraft allows to browse the web, read RSS/Atom feeds, download files via BitTorrent, FTP, HTTP and DC, automatically download, play or stream podcasts (and other media files) and much more.
LeechCraft is a (C++ and Qt-based) modular live environment: a kind
of a desktop environment with a focus on the actual applications for
some typical desktop tasks and their interoperation. For instance,
LeechCraft allows one to:
- browse the web;
- chat via XMPP, IRC, Tox and a bunch of other protocols;
- read RSS feeds;
- listen to music in an Amarok-like audio player;
- view documents in PDF, FB2 and other formats;
- download BitTorrent files;
- share files via cloud;
- post to blogs;
- and much more.
Each function is provided by a separate module which can be omitted at build
or run time if not needed.
