YouTube Pro is built on the principle of Intentional Viewing. We believe the interface should get out of the way of the content. By utilizing modern CSS techniques and subtle JS-driven enhancements, we've created a skin that feels native yet significantly more premium than the standard UI.
Feel free to open an issue if you encounter bugs or have feature requests.
