Who and Why
Voca isn't just another downloader. It's a response to the evolving needs of the modern web.
Why Voca?
While tools like wget and curl are legendary, they show their age. wget struggles with modern SSL/TLS configurations and dynamic sites. curl is a transfer tool, not a recursive downloader.
Voca fills the gap: a recursive downloader built on a modern network stack.

Who is Voca for?

- Power Users: Who want to download files efficiently without memorizing 50 flags.
