In their own words
Gopeed
Gopeed is a free, open-source download manager for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, and the web. It handles HTTP, HTTPS, BitTorrent, magnet, and ed2k links; BitTorrent support includes seeding, DHT, PEX, uTP, WebTorrent, and UPnP. JavaScript extensions can add download sources such as YouTube, HuggingFace, and cloud storage, while browser add-ons for Chrome, Edge, and Firefox can capture links automatically. For remote or automated workflows, Gopeed offers an HTTP REST API, an official JavaScript SDK, and webhooks for completion or failure events. Its web version and Docker deployment can provide remote download services with configurable authentication. The project has no ads or tracking and is released under GPLv3. The API guidance recommends using an API token, and public web deployments should enable identity authentication. The iOS build is an IPA for self-signing rather than an App Store listing. The installation guide also notes that Windows antivirus software may falsely flag host.exe and updater.exe.
