Neighbor1.1.0

If you frequently download content from the Internet on your computer, it's highly possible that you've heard about torrents and how they help you fetch your data in a convenient manner.Neighbor is one of the clients that enable you to retrieve online data using torrents and also lets you perform searches and create new torrent files.

Torrent files

First things first, torrents are documents with metadata about files and folders that are about to be distributed and also a list of trackers that are used to help other participants find each other and form swarms (distribution groups).It is worth mentioning that torrent files do not contain the actual file that is about to be downloaded, but rather data about those documents, including their names, folder structure, sizes and hash values that are used to check file integrity.

Create new torrents

As stated above, Neighbor is a client that can help you manage the files described earlier, which can usually be found in the .TORRENT format. Aside from letting you use these to download content, this app can also create new torrent files.While in the main screen, you can see a list of torrents that are currently downloading, ones that are "seeding" (when the download has finished, you help others fetch the content by becoming an uploader) and ones that have been paused.

Search for content

The application enables you to search for new torrent content on the Internet by using servers called "communities." Neighbor comes with a bunch of these servers already loaded in its system. Mind you that the default communities rely on legal, free content. You should use this function responsibly.If you want to load other servers in the app, you can access the "Settings" section, scroll all the way down, type the desired server's address in the designated field and hit the "Add" button.

Handy torrent client

All in all, you can turn to Neighbor if you want a fast, lightweight torrent client that supports communities, servers that enable you to search for torrent content without using a standard web browser.
