Hi HNI built DownloadStuffs, a fast, modern interface for exploring the Internet Archive.The default IA UI is powerful, but I often found it:slow on mobilehard to preview multi-file items (series, playlists)unreliable when downloading large files (CORS, broken links, unclear “best file”)So I made a cleaner, opinionated alternative.What it does:Fast search with real server-side paginationFilters by media type + sort by relevance, downloads, views, recencyIn-page video/audio preview with playlist queue⬇ Reliable download proxy (avoids browser/CORS issues)Batch/playlist ZIP downloads for series & collectionsLive demo: https://downloadstuffss.vercel.app/Tech stack: Bun + TypeScript + Vite + Verc
