What language should I use to make video download software?

Question

Can someone tell me about how to make software for downloading videos? I want to know what language is used for that and how to start from scratch. Please post any links for that or answers that will help.

Answer 1

Python with it's rich amount of modules is the easiest approach to the problem, in my opinion

Try those modules useful for content downloading:
> requests
> urllib

But if you want to create more advanced programs, such as: crawlers or scrapers
Take a look also at those modules:
> requests - once again
> selenium
> scrapy
> beautifulsoup
> lxml

But remember: "the easiest" not always means "the best" neither "the only" 👍
