This repository contains a single-file implementation of YouTube video downloader written in Go. It does not require any third-party packages, only built-in packages from the standard library. The code is compact and easily-readable.

Nowhere near the features of youtube-dl (which is like a swiss army knife for downloading videos off the internet), but cool nonetheless. You can read the entirety of GoTube’s source code in a single sitting, which makes it great for learning and tinkering.
