hi, this is a project I've been working on and off for the last three months, it's my first non-trivial, non-hello-world, actually useful (at least to me) go project. it would be very nice if you could just try the program and see if it works on your setup! the readme[0] explains how it works, why I wrote it and how it fits in my "command-line centric" computing environment (there is also a video demo[1] :)). if you know go, feel free to take a look at the code and review it! I'm still pretty much new to go and I'd love to hear opinions, feedback and tips from more seasoned go developers :)…

Hey HN, I've been working on this side project for the past month. It generates a step-by-step tutorial guide for YouTube videos that you can follow along without watching long videos. Best suited for tutorial videos but can work for other videos aswell. No BS. Just straight to the point. The guides are generated from pure transcript so you don't have to worry about it being AI. It's my first project as a total beginner. Something I had to do inorder to get out of tutorial hell. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or if you face any problems or bugs. I would try to fix them to the…

This is a small project i made years ago and updated to whisper last year, i still use it from time to time and thought it might be useful to others, or just put the idea out there for someone better than me to make a better implementation!

I found the manual process of downloading various YouTube assets painful so built a simple app to help myself and hopefully others. The app wraps up popular Python libraries (`yt-dlp, scrapetube, youtube-transcript-api`) and makes their functionality easier to use. Python and Docker versions are available.

I'm excited to share a project. It's a Python script that utilizes the LangChain framework and the ChatOllama model to generate concise summaries from webpages and YouTube videos. For those preferring a graphical interface, it includes a Gradio app that runs in the browser to use the summarizer interactively. Easily containerize and deploy the summarizer with Docker. The tool is perfect for anyone needing quick insights without reading through the entire content/ It's open for contributions, so if you're interested in improving or extending its functionalities, feel free to dive in!
