A self-hosted, minimal YouTube frontend built with vanilla JavaScript and yt-dlp that lets you manage channel subscriptions, download videos, and watch them locally without ads. It optionally integrates local or hosted LLMs to summarize video content.

Use cases

  • watch youtube without ads
  • self-host a youtube frontend
  • download youtube videos locally
  • manage youtube channel subscriptions
  • summarize youtube videos with a local llm
  • watch downloaded videos offline on all devices
  • skip sponsors in youtube videos

When to choose

  • you want an ad-free, minimal YouTube experience you control
  • you want to download and play videos offline across your home network
  • you prefer dependency-light software with simple JSON persistence
  • you want LLM video summaries using your own local model

When to avoid

  • you need a full-featured YouTube client with comments and live streams
  • you don't want to install yt-dlp and ffmpeg yourself
  • you need a mobile app rather than a self-hosted web app
