Deluge Remote Modern - A completely rebuilt, Manifest V3 extension with Dark Mode!

[tsa3000]

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share a new browser extension I just released called Deluge Remote Modern.

If you've been using Deluge for a while, you might remember the classic "Remote Deluge" extension by YodaDaCoda. It hasn't been updated since 2017, so I decided to fork it and completely modernize it from the ground up.

What's new in this version?

Manifest V3 & Service Worker: Fully updated to meet Chrome's new extension standards, so it won't break when MV2 is deprecated.

Ultra-Lightweight (Vanilla JS): I completely removed the old jQuery dependency and rewrote the core logic using native Vanilla JS. This makes the extension incredibly snappy and saved about 77KB in size!.

Dark Mode: Full support for System, Light, and Dark themes covering the popup, options, progress bars, and dialogs.

Label Selector: You can now change torrent labels directly from a dropdown on each torrent row right inside the popup (requires the Label plugin to be enabled in your Deluge client).

AES-256-GCM Password Encryption: Your Deluge password is now securely encrypted before being synced to your browser storage, using a dynamic local key.

Quality of Life: HTTPS is now the default protocol, handling .torrent and magnet links is enabled by default, and there's a new green icon to clearly show your connected state.

Huge credits to YodaDaCoda for the original MIT-licensed project that made this possible.

You can check out the source code and download the release here:

I'd love for you guys to test it out and let me know what you think. Feedback and bug reports are always welcome!

I use firefox and have been using TorrentControl, for chrome i think there is a "RemoteAdder" or something like that - but this looks interesting. Will definitely check it out and let you know what I think.

Thanks for contributing!
