I made this as a one-off project for my family, specifically for my uncle.
It's a simple YouTube video downloader, made specifically for Microsoft Windows©, and for technologically illiterate users.
I don't plan on developing this any further, unless I have a personal reason to do so, like the program breaking for my uncle, or a feature request by him.
I will probably respond to simple issues or pull requests, but don't expect me to spend an extended amount of time on this, feel free to fork it in that case and work on this yourself, if you're inclined to do so.
Currently tested and built using: 0.13.0-dev.347+30a35a897
You can create compile_commands.json while building using -Dgenerate-ccjson=true flag.
Compilation was made specifically for Linux, you may have to change it to compile on different operating systems or architectures.
Dependencies are automatically downloaded and compiled by build.zig.
This is why you need a very recent (at the time of writing) master-branch version of Zig.
The program needs a few things at runtime in the same directory as it's located, NOT THE CURRENT DIRECTORY.
You also probably want to include the licenses of imgui, gltf, cpp-json and yt-dlp.
Obtain yt-dlp.exe from its github.
I specifically tested it with release 2023.11.16.
The executable name must be exact.
This isn't strictly necessary, but most of the text won't display properly without it. I recommend Iosevka, it's my favorite font and it supports a lot of glyphs.
