+# WebTorrent.app Version History
+
+# v0.0.0
+
+The first official release of WebTorrent.app, the streaming torrent client for OS X,
+Windows, and Linux. For now, we're only releasing binaries for OS X.
+
+WebTorrent.app is in ALPHA and under very active development – expect lots more polish in
+the coming weeks! If you know JavaScript and want to help us out, there's
+[lots to do](https://github.com/feross/webtorrent-app/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22good+first+contribution%22)!
+
+##  Features
+
+- **Lightweight, fast torrent client**
+- **Beautiful user experience**
+- **Instantly stream video and audio** from torrents!
+  - WebTorrent fetches file pieces from the network **on-demand**, for instant playback.
+  - Even when the file is not fully downloaded, **seeking still works!** (Seeking just reprioritizes what pieces are fetched from the network.)
+- Stream videos to **AirPlay** and **Chromecast**
+- **Pure Javascript**, so it's very easy to contribute code!
+- Based on the most popular and comprehensive torrent package in Node.js, [`webtorrent`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/webtorrent).
+- Lots of **features**, without the bloat:
+  - Opens magnet links and .torrent files
+  - Drag-and-drop makes adding torrents easy!
+  - Seed files/folders by dragging them onto the app
+  - Discovers peers via tracker servers, DHT (Distributed Hash Table), and peer exchange
+  - Make the video window "float on top" for watching video while you work!
+  - Supports WebTorrent protocol – for connecting to WebRTC peers (i.e. web browsers)
