Warning

Status: Not Done. Still working on it, but I can download audio no problem atm.

A tool for ripping audio from YouTube (more in the future). Using a genuinely great tool called yt-dlp. The goal is a very thin wrapper around yt-dlp and be an actually useful GUI for non-programming people (i.e. video editors).

Benefits:

• Lightweight and easy to use
• Safe and Private (I don't store data, even if you download sus videos).
• No ads (other services have annoying ads, this doesn't)
• Performant by default (Built with Rust + SolidJS, though it doesn't matter that much)
• Fastest downloads you'll ever get (It's just your computer your internet, no middle-man server to proxy with, so it's faster).

Technologies Used:

• Tauri (Rust)
• SolidJS
• Vike (Filesystem Routing) - vite build will build static.
• TailwindCSS
• Extra things for DevX:
  • Prettier + prettier-plugin-tailwindcss
  • Bun - Faster package manager 🥳

Getting Started

• brew install ffmpeg
• bun install - installs all dependencies
• bun tauri dev - start the server

Building for Production

• bun tauri build.
  • Installer is saved here: ./src-tauri/target/release/bundle/dmg/tauri-solid_0.0.0_aarch64.dmg
  • Binary is saved here: ./src-tauri/target/release/bundle/macos/tauri-solid.app/Contents/MacOS/tauri-solid (You can run this without installing with bun preview-mac)
