What is cobalt?

cobalt aims to be the ultimate social media downloader, that is efficient, pretty, and doesn't bother you with ads or privacy invasion agreement popups.

cobalt doesn't remux any videos, so you get videos of max quality available (unless you change that in settings).

What's supported?

  • Twitter
  • TikTok
  • douyin
  • YouTube and YouTube Music
  • bilibili.com
  • Reddit
  • VK

TO-DO

  • niconico support
  • Instagram support
  • Quality switching for bilibili and Twitter
  • Language picker in settings
  • Make cobalt fully PWA compatible (add a service worker)
  • Make switch buttons in settings selectable with keyboard
  • Remake page rendering module to be more versatile
  • Matching could be redone, I'll see what I can do
