I wanted to share a little project I’ve been working on, it’s a simple, self-hosted GUI for downloading media using yt-dlp. If you’re tired of command-line tools and want a clean, responsive interface to grab videos or audio from platforms like YouTube, this might be just what you’re looking for.

How It Works:

  • It uses a lightweight Express.js server to handle downloads via yt-dlp.
  • The front end is built with plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, keeping it simple and easy to customize.

It’s prob been done a thousand times, but I couldn’t find one that I liked. Any errors etc, let me know and I will fix them.

You can download it here via GitHub

Give it a ⭐ if you like it.
