Description

Adds external JavaScript support used by yt-dlp when site extraction needs JavaScript behavior across supported runtimes. It helps the downloader handle pages or signatures that require script evaluation.

This is support code for yt-dlp, not a separate media application. It inherits the same online-content, copyright, and site-terms considerations as the downloader using it.
