Lets you download the Transcripts of Youtube Videos as JSONs
It does this by adding a download button to the vanilla Youtube transcript which uses some custom parsing in order to convert all data and metadata into a JSON that then gets downloaded.
The source code is available here: https://github.com/RandomGamingDev/yt-transcript-downloader
The format of the JSON is the following: { "title": `<title>`, "url": `<url>`, "sections": [{ "name": <name>, "lines": [{ `<time>`: `<line>` }, `...`] }, `...`] }

Release notes for 1.0.1
I've made it so that the colors correspond with Youtube's normal colors even when in light or a different mode, meaning that the button will no longer appear mismatched or grayed out for Youtube's different schemes.
