Torrent to Magnet

The Torrent to Magnet reads a .torrent metadata file locally and builds a magnet URI from its info hash and available display or tracker fields. It gives an immediate, focused result with no signup, explains the important limits beside the output, and keeps the workflow as private as the implementation allows.

How is a torrent file converted to a magnet link?

A magnet link identifies BitTorrent content primarily by the SHA-1 hash of a .torrent file's bencoded info dictionary. This converter reads local metadata and builds a magnet URI with the info hash plus available display-name and tracker parameters, so the small .torrent file does not need to be shared.

A from-scratch bencode decoder and Web Crypto hash run in the browser without joining a swarm or transferring payload data. Conversion does not prove legality, safety, or availability. A magnet can still fail when no reachable peer provides metadata or when the swarm lacks complete pieces.
