Search for music and download tracks as MP3 files — powered by the YouTube Music API and streamed directly to your browser with no server-side storage.

• Search songs via YouTube Music
• Zero-storage streaming pipeline: audio is transcoded on the fly and piped straight to the HTTP response
• Mobile-friendly UI built with Onsen UI

When a download is triggered, soundsip never writes audio to disk:

1. ytdl-core opens an audio stream directly from YouTube
2. ffmpeg receives that stream and transcodes it to MP3 on the fly
3. The MP3 bytes are piped straight into the HTTP response

The browser receives a standard file download. No temporary files are created, and no persistent storage is needed — including in Docker.

Requires Docker with Compose. FFmpeg is bundled in the image — no additional dependencies needed.
