YT Focus - Learning Made Easy
YT Focus is a Chrome add-on developed by company yellow that aims to provide a distraction-free learning experience on YouTube.

The add-on also features a power button that allows you to toggle YT Focus on and off whenever you need it.
YT Focus was created as a passion project to address the issue of distractions while using YouTube for educational purposes. The add-on's goal is to make YouTube as unstimulating as possible, allowing you to laser focus on your learning materials. Once you're done, you can simply toggle off YT Focus and relax.
One notable aspect of YT Focus is that it is open source. The code for the extension is available on their GitHub repository, making it a great resource for those interested in learning how to create their own Chrome extensions or contribute to the project. Additionally, YT Focus welcomes feedback from users and encourages bug reports and feature suggestions on their GitHub page.
When it comes to privacy, YT Focus respects the personal information of its users and does not collect or retain any personal data, browsing history, or identifying information. The add-on utilizes Chrome's WebExtensions Storage Sync API and the browser's Web Storage API (localStorage) for storing user settings and Developer Tools fixes.
If you're looking to enhance your learning experience on YouTube and eliminate distractions, YT Focus is a valuable tool to consider. Get focused and improve your productivity with this free Chrome add-on.
