## Description

magnetW is a cross-platform desktop application for BitTorrent magnet management and P2P content discovery. It provides a dedicated interface to search for, resolve, and organize magnet links to prevent the loss of access to content.

The application utilizes an asynchronous resolution process that queries peer-to-peer networks and external indexes in the background. This allows users to locate and resolve magnet links into downloadable files without blocking the user interface.

The system includes capabilities for managing torrent link collections, downloading files via magnet links or torrent files, and maintaining a local database for link organization and persistence.

The project is developed as a web-based user interface wrapped in a native desktop shell.
