What is your level of scripting knowledge/experience?

 

There are two basic steps if you are looking at scripting + scriptUI for interface (I can't comment on UXP panels).

 

1) First the underlying script code, that does not rely on having a GUI. This could have hard coded paths to begin with, or prompts to select the source and destination folders. You really need to get the underlying code working correctly first.

 

2) Then as a secondary aspect, adding the code for the graphical user interface and linking it up to the underlying code.

 

I personally would treat this as two separate projects. A GUI is icing on the cake, but you first need the cake!

Then forget the GUI in the beginning (you need the cake before the icing/fondent), just start with a script that works from either hard-coded, fixed input/output folders or folders that are selected via a simple prompt(); command.

 

As @Bojan Živković11378569 mentioned, you could take a look at some of JJMack's scripts, you may even find one that already does what you require:
