Tur is the native graphical frontend for the hyper-fast download engine tur-rs. Built using Tauri, React, and TypeScript, it delivers a stunning, responsive, and native-feeling interface across all major operating systems while keeping memory and CPU usage at an absolute minimum.
Say goodbye to bloated, ad-filled download managers. Tur is fully open-source, designed for power users, and unapologetically fast.
- ⚡ Hyper-Fast Core: Powered by the native Rust

- 🔌 Multi-Engine Support: Not just a frontend for
tur-rs—Tur architecture allows plugging in external engines likearia2cseamlessly. - 💾 Smart Persistence: Download sessions, histories, and configurations are securely stored using a blazing-fast local SQLite database.
