A CLI tool to easily download YouTube music
MIT License
Zicott is a Gluegun-powered CLI for quickly downloading YouTube videos as MP3. It's a simple tool that I've build for my personal usage, so don't expect it to be heavily maintained. Personally, I've been using YouTube to listen to music, but there are a couple of problems with it:
So that's why this tool exists.
⚠ Important: To run this CLI, you need to have FFmpeg installed on your computer. Also, keep in mind that downloading audio from videos other than your own is against YouTube TOS, use this tool at your own risk.
