YouTube Video Downloader

How It Works:

HTML Structure: The code creates a form with two input fields:
- A text box for users to paste the YouTube video link.
- A dropdown menu for selecting the video quality or audio format.
Form Submission: The form submits a POST request to a hypothetical /download endpoint. You will need to create this backend endpoint to handle the downloading logic.
Styling: Basic CSS styles are included to make the form visually appealing.

Backend Implementation:

To actually download videos from YouTube, you’ll need a backend service that can:

Accept the video URL and quality as parameters.
Use a library like youtube-dl, pytube, or similar in Python, or another appropriate library in your chosen backend language to fetch and download the video.

Important Note:

Downloading videos from YouTube may violate their terms of service, and it’s essential to ensure that you have permission to download any video content. Always comply with copyright laws and YouTube’s policies.
