Original Summary

Hey everyone, Whenever I prepare for technical exams or pick up a new topic, I rely heavily on long YouTube lecture series (like MIT OpenCourseWare, Stanford courses, or multi-part programming deep dives). The problem was my study setup was always chaotic: - 30 open browser tabs with playlist parts that I was afraid to close - Constant algorithmic distractions and recommended videos pulling me away - Pausing every two minutes to write down timestamps in a separate notes app I wanted something closer to what VS Code feels like for programming: a fast, dark, distraction-free environment built specifically for studying lectures. Over the last few months I built Skua ( https://skualearn.com ). What it does: - Focus Player: A clean video theater without comments, suggestions, or algorithmic clutter. You can control playback entirely via keyboard (Space, J/L, Zen mode on 'Z'). - Curriculum Tracks: You can organize scattered playlists into sequenced modules with milestone tracking. - Timestamped Notes: Every note you type is linked to the exact second in the lecture, so clicking the note jumps straight to that moment in the video. - Quick Export: Notes can be exported to Markdown or into a formatted Anki deck. - Local-First: Data is saved directly in your browser using IndexedDB (Dexie.js), so you can use it offline and don't need to create an account. It is completely free during the beta, and you can test the interactive live demo right in your browser without signing up: https://skualearn.com I built this mostly to solve my own workflow headaches, but I would really appreciate any honest feedback: Does this match how you study from video courses, and what feels clunky or missing?   submitted by   /u/Ammonox [link]   [comments]
