torrent files

A torrent file is a small computer file that contains information about a larger set of data or files you want to download. Instead of hosting the files on one central server, torrents use a decentralized system where multiple users share pieces of the files with each other. When you open a torrent file with special software called a BitTorrent client, it connects to other users sharing the same files, downloading pieces from many sources at once. This approach can make downloads faster and reduce strain on any single server, while promoting shared distribution among users.
