Varia

Varia is a free, open-source download manager designed to handle files, torrents, and online video or audio streams. It provides a graphical interface built with GTK4 and Libadwaita for managing downloads through a unified application. The software uses aria2 for file transfers and yt-dlp for downloading supported online media. Users can organize downloads, monitor transfer progress, and control active downloading tasks. Browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox allow downloads to be forwarded directly to the application. It also provides system integration features, including shutdown after download completion. Available for Linux, Windows, and experimental macOS builds, Varia combines traditional file downloading, BitTorrent transfers, and media retrieval in one accessible interface.
