  2. Search Functionality:

    • The search bar in the navigation bar allows users to type in keywords to search for videos. As the user types, search suggestions are fetched from the YouTube API and displayed in a dropdown list. Clicking on a suggestion or pressing enter will filter the videos based on the search query.
