🚀 v0.2.0 – Translation Support & Refactor Overhaul
Released: July 23, 2025

🌍 Translation Support

  • ✨ Translate audio on the fly!
    You can now generate translated subtitles by passing the --translate flag along with a target --language.
    Example: transcribe French audio and output English subtitles.

  • 📄 Updated documentation with usage examples for the new translation options.

  • 🎬 Added demo video: French audio → English subtitles.

🛠️ Major Codebase Refactor

  • Renamed project from Transcriber → Capski.
  • Separated core modules:
    • audio extraction and transcription logic moved into its own module.
    • subtitle rendering logic modularized for better reuse and clarity.
  • Refactored the entry point to support clean CLI-to-library transitions.

🔧 Dependency

  • Ran cargo update to refresh lockfile and dependency versions.

✅ Merged PRs

  • #4: refactor – modularized architecture and renamed components.
  • #5: translation – added translation support and updated documentation.

Capski is getting smarter 🌐✨
