No longer under development

This is an Electron App which uses ytdl-core and ffmpeg (along with other libraries) in order to create a simple and intuitive cross-platform desktop application which lets you download youtube videos.

Currently Supported:

At the moment, only Windows and Linux are accesible to me, so only these platforms are developed for. So far I haven't even got an entry in the build options to build for MacOS.

Building:

git clone https://github.com/JamesTiberiusKirk/Youtube-Downloader
cd Youtube-Downloader
npm install
npm run dist
Linux: to be able to build a snap, you need to install the snapcraft package on youre system.
Note: at the moment, for some reason the build is only building for the current operating system (if you're building on ubunu, you will only get only a .deb and a snap)
