simple-song-downloader v1

Leer esto en Español

Download YouTube videos, YouTube Music songs, playlists, and SoundCloud tracks.

Just type the name of the song you want, select the provider (YouTube, YouTube Music or SoundCloud) and the app will do the rest!

How it works

The app will fetch the platforms to get the cookies and the user client id or token, and will use this data to download the songs.
If the downloaded file is a YouTube video or playlist, it will convert the downloaded ogg (opus) files to mp3 using Ffmpeg.
The app should download and extract FFmpeg automatically in case it is not added to the PATH.
SoundCloud provides files in mp3 format, so a conversion is not needed in that case.

How to use it

Download the app from the "Releases" page and run it.

How to run it from the source code

1. Download the repository or clone it using git
2. Download and install Node.js (if you haven't already)
3. Install dependencies (once) using npm i (or pnpm i if you have pnpm installed, use npm i -g pnpm if not)
4. Transpile the app using npm run comp or npx tsc
5. Run the app using npm start, or build it to an .exe using npm run build (the result file will be in the "bin" folder)
