[Lomanu4]

This is a Python-based CLI(Command Line Interface) application that allows you to manage a list of YouTube videos and their durations. It uses a JSON file (tasks.txt) for persistent storage.

? Features-
Add a new video
View all saved videos
Search for a video
Update video details
Delete a video
Sort videos by name or duration
Data stored in a tasks.txt file (JSON format)

? File Structure-
├── youtube_manager.py # Main Python script
├── tasks.txt # JSON file storing video data (auto-created)

1. List all YouTube Videos
2. Add a YouTube Video
3. Search YouTube Video details
4. Update a YouTube Video details
5. Delete a YouTube Video
6. Check status (Sort)
7. Exit the app

The app automatically saves changes to tasks.txt.
