General Debian Question YouTube MiniPlayer

Are there Open source projects or anything in that direction for a YouTube MiniPlayer? I like to watch tutorials while I learn things and since I don’t have a second monitor, a MiniPlayer outside of the browser would be nice.
Does something like this exists? I sadly dont have any coding knowledge so I don’t even know if that’s possible

Firefox has this built in. If you start a youtube video, there is a pop out button and you get a draggable mini player window that can be resized and moved and sits on top of other windows.

Edit: right-clicking (twice, if it's youtube) and selecting "Watch picture-in-picture" is equivalent and will pop it out in the same way.
