   Very useful for editing scripts/interview videos.

   Coming from a video editing background, Descript might take some getting used to. But once you figure it out, it speeds up your editing (especially interviews/long-form voiceover). The captions are very nice to work with, but a bit limited in terms of styles. There are a lot more caption styles, transitions, and effects in CapCut, but Descript excels in simplicity and speed.

   The saved layouts (you can make your own) are very good if you want to create a bunch of videos on different topics with the same design scheme or branding.

   🏁 Competitors: CapCut, Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Riverside.fm

  For transcripts, I use Descript. Descript is able to identify all four of our panel members, and I usually spend an hour or so cleaning it up and setting the transcript into a video for YouTube. Source: about 3 years ago

• I dont want to learn "डाटा संरचनाएँ और एल्गोरिदम" but want a good job.

  Even at the application level, most people get away with it because those DSA are implemented in the underlying libraries or framework which you just call from your code. But if you were ever asked to debug that library/framework some day, then you'll definitely need to know DSA. Leading institutions like Toptal indeed ask you to do score well in DSA.
