Old version

Some how the repo was > 200 mb, so I deleted .git and started a new repo Termianl-YT

Terminal-yt

A small newsboat-inspired youtube subscription manager written in Rust.

Tyt can parse atom and RSS feeds and was written with video feed from YouTube or Twitch in mind. The default player is mpv. However, this can be changed in the settings.

Tyt was build with tui and termion as backend.
