Project Support Suggestion

Im wondering if the client could eventually be integrated with the Freetube Youtube front end project. You would have to coordinate it with them I think but it would be great to just be able to have an open source front end for youtube with a cast button that could cast to your Pi. I use Freetube all the time myself because it has a lot of nice features including ad prevention and enhances privacy since google owns Youtube.

With a native node.js addon wrapping the nymphcast SDK, it would probably be trivial.

That is probably the most straight-forward way to do it, yes. Does FreeTube have a standard way to add functionality like addons? From a quick glimpse on their page it doesn't appear to be the case.

If this functionality would have to be integrated directly into the FreeTube codebase, it might be easiest to first raise the issue with them, to see whether they would be interested in writing & integrating this LibNymphCast wrapper.
