Show HN: I Built JASD – Just a Simple Downloader

Hi guys,

I know there are already plenty of tools that can download videos from YouTube and other sites, but I never really found a desktop app that felt simple and comfortable to use. Most of them felt bloated or overly complicated. I also wanted to try building something like this myself, so I decided to create a straightforward tool that simply does what it’s supposed to do.

JASD is based on yt-dlp under the hood, which means it can download video+audio from hundreds of websites. On top of that, it includes some useful features like a download queue, multiple simultaneous downloads, and the ability to download entire playlists.

The name JASD stands for Just A Simple Downloader. I also liked that it sounds like the word "just". Even in German, you would pronounce it pretty much like the English word "just".

The app is built with Electron and is completely free.

If you'd like to try it out, feel free to download it. If you encounter bugs, have feature suggestions, or want to contribute, please feel free to open an issue or submit a pull request.

Thanks!
