The things i learned from this project are docker, aws shie and streaming data.
Downloading youtube content using yt-dlp or any other why, is stricktly against youtubes policy, that's the reason this application is just for learning purposes and the server is not deplyed to VPS.
Pinky promis, not like i tried deplying to aws anyways. I had actully it's just they know what i'm doing so....
If you want to do something similar, use proxy servers or home server to host it.
