Repository Structure and Documentation

Under the path of src/extractors/, there consists of two directories, youtube and youtube-new. Due to the current rewrite, the youtube directory is deprecated with youtube-new superseding it once completed.

Rewrite Plans

The rewrite will consist of two parts — the requester, and the parser. The parser will handle traversing a given JSON object following "rules" defined in separate files with the aim of identifying the most common patterns in the YouTube API and creating a set of rules that can be applied to each given pattern.

The requester, on the other hand, will handle all interactions with APIs. This includes Innertube, RYD, Sponsorblock, etc.
