## Why Firelink
Firelink is a desktop download manager for fast transfers, browser capture, media extraction, scheduling, and clear file placement.
Firelink is a cross-platform desktop download manager for direct transfers, browser capture, media extraction, scheduling, and clear file placement.
It is now a cross-platform Rust/Tauri app with a React and TypeScript interface. A native backend coordinates downloads with aria2, yt-dlp, FFmpeg, Deno, and SQLite.
