		os.Exit(3)
	}

	pl, err := twitchpl.Get(context.Background(), args[0])

	// }

	println(pl.AsURL())
	// https://video-weaver.arn04.hls.ttvnw.net/v1/playlist/C..JIG.m3u8

	//	println(pl.Worst().AsJSON())
	//	println(pl.Best().AsURL())
}

🧠 What I Learned

• m3u8 parsing
• GraphQL requests
• Golangs basics (HTTP requests, nested structs, error handling)

📝 ToDo

• Detect if channel doesn't exists
• Ignore restreams
