What is torrent-mount?
torrent-mount is a command-line tool that mounts torrents or magnet links as virtual filesystems using FUSE, allowing users to access and stream torrent files in real time as if they were local files. It solves the problem of needing to download entire torrents before accessing content by enabling on-demand streaming and lazy downloading.
