Watch YouTube videos on your Mac via CLI

With pipcorn you can spawn a picture-in-picture YouTube player without installing anything! Simple type the following into the terminal:

npx pipcorn https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo_B4LTHi3I

Demo

It uses ytdl-core and open-pip under the hood. However they are webpacked so that the program installs fast.

You can control the video via the Touch Bar of your MacBook.
