XHS-Downloader

XHS-Downloader is a GUI/CLI tool for downloading Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book) content without watermarks, supporting both graphics and video posts. Prebuilt packages for Windows and macOS are available from Releases and GitHub Actions artifacts, so most users can run it by unzipping and launching the included executable. The project offers two execution paths—run the compiled app or run from source—and documents default download and configuration paths to simplify first use. Recent releases add format support like JPEG and HEIC, clipboard-listening mode improvements, author-based archiving, SOCKS/HTTP proxy options, and the ability to set the file’s modification time to the post’s publish time for cleaner library organization. There is an active issues/discussions area with community tips, including approaches that use Selenium to acquire cookies and user agents for more reliable downloads.
