You can seed files in one of these three ways:

  • http/https web seeds
  • "hybrid" peers (i.e. peers which can speak with both WebRTC peers, and regular TCP/UDP peers), some examples are:
    • WebTorrent Desktop (via WebTorrent-Hybrid library)
    • Vuze /w WebTorrent extension
    • LibTorrent /w WebTorrent enabled.
  • WebRTC peers (WebTorrent in the browser)

If you are calling client.add in the browser with torrents from the TCP or UDP swarms, this will not work, as a browser can not directly speak with these other peers, as they speak different communication.

Hopefully this answers your question, but if you have any more, please feel free to ask them.
