I made an app that turns YouTube videos and articles into a course

Hacker News

Hey everyone! I'm a solo developer and I made this app during my free time after graduating high school. studymap.ai uses AI to create structured courses from start to finish, with lessons, project ideas, and links to useful internet resources. You can either describe what you want to learn or just give it the link to any YouTube video or article and it will create organized chapters. I had this idea after struggling to learn new skills online, like Linux, new programming languages, etc. I found myself browsing for hours just to find the perfect resources to get started with actually learning. Once I realized I could use the power of GPT-4 and web-searching APIs to create a course for me, I had to make it into an app. If you visit my website there are some free courses I generated for you to try out. Let me know what you think!
