What is it?

qui is a web interface for qBittorrent, the open-source BitTorrent client. It lets you manage several qBittorrent instances from one lightweight application, so you don't have to switch between separate WebUIs for each client.

Beyond basic torrent management, qui adds rule-based automations that apply conditions and actions to torrents, and a cross-seed feature that finds and adds matching torrents across trackers. It also offers scheduled backups with several restore modes, and a transparent reverse proxy that lets external apps talk to qBittorrent through qui.

qui ships as a single binary with no dependencies, and can also be run via Docker. The interface is available in more than ten languages and detects the browser language automatically.
