# ytLlive
|
|
|
|
A creator-proof live-streaming and recording app for YouTube — native Windows (C# / WPF / .NET 8).

## Design Principle
|
|
|
|
> This software is so intuitive that even the most right-brained person can easily intuit and use it.
|
|
|
|
Every feature is measured against this. One-click go-live, sane YouTube defaults, visual scene
|
|
building, and no dead ends — every action has a visible outcome.
|
|
|
|
## Why ytLlive
|
|
|
|
OBS treats YouTube as an afterthought; SLOBS is Twitch-first with YouTube bolted on. ytLlive is
|
|
designed and dedicated to YouTube livestreaming and recording, and to YouTube's specific quirks.
|
|
|
|
## Account Assumption
|
|
|
|
ytLlive assumes you already have a YouTube creator account — connecting uses "Sign in with Google"
|
|
to link that existing account. **ytLlive does not create accounts.** If you don't have a YouTube
|
|
channel yet, set one up on YouTube first, then connect it here.
|
|
|
|
## Run
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
dotnet build # Windows only — WPF
|
|
dotnet run
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
