🖤 The Minimalist - 01 | Building a Distraction-Free YouTube Experience
In this video, I kick off The Minimalist Project — a personal experiment to create a simpler, cleaner, and distraction-free version of YouTube.
We all know how YouTube recommendations can pull us down a rabbit hole of endless videos 😅 — that’s the problem I’m tackling!
Using YouTube Data API v3 and Google OAuth, I’ll show how to fetch your favorite videos, playlists, and channels — but in a minimal interface focused only on what truly matters: the content.
🔧 Tech Used
React.js + vite-bundler
YouTube Data API v3
Google OAuth
JavaScript / React
Minimal UI Design
💡 What’s Next
In the upcoming parts, I’ll add playlist handling, comment viewing, and custom UI design — all staying true to the Minimalist Philosophy.
