I'm building an application with libtorrent for progressive download,
my question is whether libtorrent works locally, with a local tracker
and n-machines

As long as your clients send their local IPs to the tracker and the tracker
sends local IPs to clients I don't see why this would not work.

I'm not sure of how this works exactly so you should investigate it by
yourself, but libtorrent also supports LSD (local service discovery) so
this could probably work even if the tracker is remote and receives
external IPs from the clients.

Great, I'll try it locally using LSD and
I'll tell you how it went,
thank you for the quick response.

It works. I have a simulation to download from port A to port B in a
same environment. I also use local tracker in the way.

You just need to configure the right settings for that.
