It is a platform for Youtubers to make their life easy. But How? -Suppose you're an Youtuber and you're having a huge number of audience. But for content creation you lead a very busy schedule. It is next to impossible for you to edit your own videos and post it using proper Title, Description, Tags etc on Youtube. So you hire a person to edit your videos and upload it in your youtube channel. But for that you need to give the access of your channel to that person. But isn't it too much risky?? Yes of course!! He can do whatever he wants to do with your channel.
Basically we provide a platform where you(Youtuber) and your service provider(Editor) where both can login. We(our server) will have the access of your Youtube channel(Which is safe by legal bounds). Now you do not need to give the access of your channel to your service provider(editor). He can directly upload the video in your Youtube channel using Title, Tags, Description etc. through our website. Our server will upload the video in your channel using YoutubeAPI. So it's Safe!
We are a platform that ensures security and facilitates access to one's YouTube channel that involves combining authentication, authorization, and management features to provide a secure and user-friendly experience for Youtube channel owners.

Congratulations you have done it!! 🎉
Creating this website was not really easy for us.We faced quite a few complications in the process some of which are:
- Creating a seameless responsive website that meets all the objectives was a rigourous job.
- Using Google's OAuth2.0 for the feature #sign in with google was a hectic task for us. Generating client id, client secrets and keeping track of them and binding the code blocks in proper place was a no doubt tough job for us.
- Connecting YoutubeAPIv3 and managing this complex backend server was the most difficult part though.
- 1. We will properly integrate YoutubeAPI using token recieved through Google OAuth2.0.
- 2. We have planned for another layer for protection and security to our consumers(Youtuber). In due time,we are going to modify our platform in such a way such that the consumer get a option to approve the upload after the service provider(Video editor) uploads the video to our website. The consumer gets a pop up in his/her dashboard, where he/she can see the Video, Title, Description, Tags and make sure it is the desired video and infos are correct. Only then the video gets uploaded from our server.

git checkout master
13. Now that we have fetched the upstream repository, we want to merge its changes into our local branch. This will bring that branch into sync with the upstream, without losing our local changes.
git merge upstream/master
Work in Progress pull requests are also welcome to get feedback early on, or if there is something blocking you from working further.
Thanks goes to these wonderful people 💜
