Quick Start
Example: Convert a YouTube transcript to lecture notes
from lecture_notes_converter import LectureNotesConverter
Assume 'transcript.txt' contains your YouTube transcript

converter = LectureNotesConverter()
Convert transcript, specifying output directory and title
result = converter.convert(
transcript_file='transcript.txt',
output_dir='output',
title='My Lecture Title'
)
if result['success']:
