DebridDownloader is a download manager for paid debrid services. It:
- talks to the official Real-Debrid, TorBox, and Premiumize APIs;
- ships with no tracker sources, so users add their own;
- does not host, index, or distribute any content;
- works like other download managers such as JDownloader or aria2.
It's a neutral tool. Users are responsible for how they use it and which sources they configure. The developers don't endorse or encourage piracy.

Architecture
A Tauri v2 app: a React 19 + TypeScript + Tailwind v4 frontend in src/ talks to a Rust backend in src-tauri/ over Tauri IPC.
| Path | What it is |
|---|
src-tauri/src/engine/ | The download engine. One actor owns every job; transfers write {file}.part with segmented Range requests and crash-safe checkpoints, persisted to downloads.json. No Tauri dependencies. |
src-tauri/src/engine_host.rs | Connects the engine to Tauri: events, provider link refresh, rclone. |
src-tauri/src/providers/ | Real-Debrid, TorBox, and Premiumize clients behind one DebridProvider trait. |
src-tauri/src/commands/ | IPC command handlers. |
src-tauri/src/scrapers/ | Tracker search. |
src/styles/tokens.css | Every color, size, and spacing value in one place. |
src/components/ui/ | Shared, accessible UI components. |
src/pages/ | One file per screen; Settings is split into src/pages/settings/. |
Design docs live in specs/. AGENTS.md has the conventions for contributors.
