Glitch app downloader app

I built a GUI application for glitch users who are not comfortable with the command line to help mass-download their work: GitHub - potch/glitch-downloader: an electron app for exporting glitch projects

Right now it’s in beta and I’m looking for folks to help test that it’s working as well as help building the app for Windows users, but I’d love to share it with folks to help them save their work!

can confirm that logging in and downloading are working on the mac installer (love the icon btw). i’ve currently got it running and will report back if i have any issues!

I haven’t given this action a shot, but Electron Builder Action · Actions · GitHub Marketplace · GitHub might be useful for an electron “cross compile”?

I just updated the app to include archived/downloaded projects (h/t @Pomax for the heads up!)

I added this as an issue on the repo, but in case anyone wants to run this on Linux (say, Fedora 42), it will likely throw an error about colliding GTK libraries.

The fix is to insert:

app.commandLine.appendSwitch('gtk-version', '3');

Into src/main.js immediately after the import statements, locking it to using GTK 3, which will then allow it to run.

I didn’t attempt to bundle / package it, but it otherwise worked for me from that point on.
