.exefor end users
What's the difference between this Python project and similar ones?
- No external frontend like Electron or PyQt – built using pure
tkinter - Fully open source and lightweight, unlike some heavy or paywalled downloaders
- Uses yt-dlp under the hood — regularly maintained and more reliable than legacy
youtube-dl - Desktop GUI designed for end users who aren’t developers
- Easily forkable and customizable for personal use

I'm sorry, I really don't even know how to pull. I'm not a developer. I'm a hobby. Looking at your achievements, I'm not offended.
