# Deluge

## About

Instead of needing an endpoint client (Laptop, phone) to be turned on while a torrent downloads, I leverage Deluge's BitTorrent Client and torrent on my server which runs 24/7. This not only saves space on my endpoint device, it also means that I don't have to be online while the download is going! I can just access Deluge via the web UI, execute the download and come back when its done!
