WinDLP

A deliberately simple Windows GUI over yt-dlp — paste a URL, pick video or audio, get a playable file.

yt-dlp is excellent and entirely a command-line tool. That’s a wall for anyone who doesn’t live in a terminal.

WinDLP is the smallest thing that gets over it: paste a URL, choose MP4 or MP3, and it downloads and converts to something that will actually play. Whole-playlist downloading is in as an experimental option.

Deliberately not a front-end for every flag yt-dlp has — the point is that someone who would never open a terminal can use it.
