Visit aMule

aMule is an open-source, cross-platform peer-to-peer file sharing client modeled on eMule. It provides a desktop application for searching and exchanging files over the eDonkey and related networks, with development and releases handled through GitHub and SourceForge.

The project offers a graphical client with search, download management, and connection controls, alongside a wiki, forum, changelog, and bug tracker for documentation and issue reporting. Releases are published as source archives on GitHub and SourceForge, with user-supplied packages available for some distributions. The latest release listed is 3.1.0.

aMule is intended for users who want a cross-platform eMule-compatible client on desktop operating systems. It is distributed as free, open-source software; no paid editions, trials, or seat-based plans are described.
