Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

mux-yt

v2.0.2

Published

A simple TUI app that allows basic trimming, merging and downloading of YouTube videos, playlists, and shorts.

Readme

Mux-YT

npm version npm downloads license

The idea was simple: I was tired of going to website with sketchy ads and redirects just to download a YouTube video, and sometimes you just have to download a snippet from a video and downloading it whole and snipping it is just a pain. I also like to merge a playlist into a single video for watching - I couldn't find a tool that did all that together - so I made one.

Interface

Usage

You don't need to clone the repository or install media tools manually. As long as you have Node.js (v18+) (check version using node --version in your terminal), just run:

npx mux-yt

The app will launch instantly in your terminal!

Note: Mux-YT requires yt-dlp and FFmpeg. You can install them or let the app automatically download and configure them for you on first launch across all supported platforms (it may take a bit more time than usual on first run): (This auto dependency configuration feature is still very new (introduced in v2) - even though I have checked and it seems to be working, please let me know if you face any issues)

  • Windows (x64, arm64, x86)
  • macOS (Apple Silicon & Intel)
  • Linux (x64, arm64, arm)

However, if you're a dev or just like to fiddle with code, you can clone the repository and run the app locally:

git clone https://github.com/Shreyash0712/Mux-YT.git
cd Mux-YT
pnpm install
pnpm dev

Features

  • Media Agnostic Queue: Mix and match single YouTube videos and entire playlists in the same queue.
  • Precision Trimming: Skip downloading full videos. Set start/end timestamps (e.g., 01:15 to 03:30) and extract only what you need.
  • Playlist Segmenting: Download specific segments of a playlist (e.g., Videos 1 to 5) without grabbing the whole thing.
  • Auto-Merge Mode: Seamlessly stitch your entire queue (videos + trimmed segments) into a single, contiguous output file using ffmpeg without re-encoding!
  • Format & Quality Control: Globally toggle between Video (MP4) and Audio (MP3) formats, and easily cycle through max resolution targets (1080p, 720p, etc).
