Hey devs,

I recently built a command-line YouTube downloader in Python called ytconverter. It’s designed to fetch videos directly from YouTube and convert them into formats like MP3 and MP4. The goal was to make a simple, functional tool without external GUIs or bloated software — just clean CLI efficiency.

Key features:

Download YouTube videos
Convert to various formats (MP3, MP4, etc.)
Handles basic metadata
Easy to set up and use
If you're someone who likes working with Termux, CLI tools, or Python automation, this might be useful for you.

The project is open-source, so feel free to try it out, suggest improvements, or even contribute if you're interested.

Here’s the repo:

Let me know what you think! Suggestions, critiques, or PRs are all welcome.

Thanks!
