I got tired of the conventional download managers where finding one with good features, nice UI and being free of cost is impossible.

So this is my attempt at a free multithreaded modern download manager. (its not that bad)

Made using Python and PySide6

Features

  • Multithreading
  • Modern GUI
  • Dark-Themed
  • Logging
  • Scheduled downloads (to be added)
  • Adding Batch/multiple downloads supported (to be added)
