Show HN: Turn any YouTube video into a website/transcript
Hey HN, ExpoReader is a viewer for YouTube videos that shows the transcript of the video, and generates a shareable URL for a completely readable version of a video. I built it because I wanted helpful tutorials without having to watch an entire video.
In a later version, I was thinking it could be cool to show other screenshots from the video throughout the transcript, but there’s really no easy way to do that outside of downloading the video and taking clips from there. If anyone has any good suggestions, I’m all ears!

- jeanmayer 4y agoThanks a lot! Do you have any feedback about the "blog" page?
- 1970-01-01 4y agoFont and whitespace need adjustment, otherwise this is a great tool for skimming long presentations!
- WheelsAtLarge 4y agoKiller, I liked how well it did it and the speed. Good job. I would add an option to run it thru grammar checker as an enhancement.
- Leftium 4y agoIt would be really nice if you could click a sentence and jump to that point in the video. I used to upload course videos to youtube just to get the auto-generated transcripts for myself. I forked oTranscribe so it would load a special version of these transcripts with clickable time stamps. Here's an example for studying and taking notes on a VSL: https://otranscribe.netlify.app/?vsl=thebiorhythm https://otranscribe.netlify.app/?vsl=thebiorhythm
- aboyd 4y agoThis is pretty cool! I'd love to be able to embed this on my website so everything was in one place.
