'''Anatomic P2P''' is a [[decentralized |decentralised]] [[peer-to-peer]] network based on the [[BitTorrent]] protocol. All [[software]] that forms a part of Anatomic P2P is licensed under the [[GNU General Public License]]. Anatomic P2P consists of various scripts and applications, including the '''tracker (or node) script''', '''supertracker (or supernode) script''', '''planter applications''' and the '''client'''. All the scripts are written in [[PHP]] but nevertheless would function in any other language. All the applications are written in [[Python programming language|Python]].

===File Distribution===
To distribute files on the network a user makes a '''torrent file''' as usual. This torrent file has to be planted on the network, which is the process of notifying the supernodes and nodes (by [[HTTP]]) that the file is going to be shared on the network. This can be done through a simple wizard. The Anatomic P2P network has backwards compatibility, which allows most other BitTorrent clients to use Anatomic P2P planted torrents.

===Client===

The client is written in Python and [[PyGTK]] and this means it can run on [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]], [[Linux]] or [[Mac OS X|Mac OS X (with X server)]]. The client was based on [[BitTornado]]. A [[deprecated]] [[command-line]] client is also available. The client supports torrents using a single tracker or torrents planted on the Anatomic P2P Network.

===Network===
The anatomic uses a series of data sharing [[Node_(networking)| nodes]] and supernodes (also known as supertrackers) to share files. Nodes on the Anatomic P2P network are modified '''BitTorrent trackers''' written in [[PHP]]. The supernodes contain an index of the torrents that are being shared on the nodes. The nodes are able to share user data in a process called '''peer-sharing'''. Therefore the network is decentralised since there is no central point in the network.
