  • youtube-dl-gui

    A cross-platform GUI for youtube-dl made in Electron and node.js (by jely2002)

  • youtube-dl is an amazing tool, but if you don't like messing with the command line to download videos, you should try Youtube-dl-gui its like youtube-dl but you don't have to mess with the terminal. I'd say it's pretty good.

  • yt-dlp

    A feature-rich command-line audio/video downloader

  • youtube-dl is outdated or at least lead dev removed himself from the project from what I heard. Yt-dlp is the new fork https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
