Typescript library for editing videos with code
Today we launched a Typescript library for building video processing applications that can run completely client-side This project has been started in March 2023 with the mission of creating the "video processing toolkit for the area of AI". During an extensive research period, we quickly decided to fully embrace WebGPU, which offers a substantial performance improvement over its predecessor WebGL and technologies alike. In combination with WebCodecs, these two technologies lead to unprecedented rendering capabilities on the web and pave the way for the next generation of video processing…
Typescript library for editing videos with code launched on August 17, 2024 with 20 votes, #986 of 5,471 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 2 years on.
In plain words
This TypeScript library enables developers to build video processing applications that run entirely in the browser using client-side processing. Created for AI-focused video workflows, it leverages WebGPU and WebCodecs technologies to deliver high-performance rendering capabilities. The library is designed for developers seeking to create advanced video processing tools without server-side dependencies.

A video editing SDK that runs in the browser2024 · rendley.com · ▲129Hello HN, Video content is more popular than ever, but the toolkit for creating such content is a bit behind. You usually have to rely on a server for rendering whenever you want to create a video editing project in the browser. This means uploading content to a server, coding complex filters and effects, and more. My friend and I spent a year developing an SDK that handles all these complexities and offers an easy-to-use interface for developers. The SDK works entirely in the browser, manages memory efficiently so it can run even on a 7-year-old Android device, supports GLSL effects and…
Revideo – Create Videos with Code2024 · github.com · ▲298Hey HN! We’re building Revideo (https://github.com/redotvideo/revideo), an open source framework for programmatic video editing. Revideo lets you create video templates in Typescript and render them with dynamic inputs through an API. It also comes with a component that lets you preview your projects in the browser and integrate video editing functionality into web apps. The project is useful for anyone who wants to build apps that automate certain video editing tasks. A lot of companies in the space build their own custom stack for this, like Opus…

LiveViewJS – TypeScript back end for LiveView Apps (Phoenix LiveView)2022 · github.com · ▲146Author here. I really love the programming paradigm behind by Phoenix LiveView applications and wanted to expand the ecosystem to include programmers like myself that love Typescript. In summary, LiveViewJS reuses all the Phoenix client code and implemented a new backend in Typescript to handle client events and send back updates. Lots more detail and examples in the repo. Would love any questions and/or feedback. Thanks!

Hey there HN! We’re Joe and Stopa, and today we’re open sourcing InstantDB, a client-side database that makes it easy to build real-time and collaborative apps like Notion and Figma. Building modern apps these days involves a lot of schleps. For a basic CRUD app you need to spin up servers, wire up endpoints, integrate auth, add permissions, and then marshal data from the backend to the frontend and back again. If you want to deliver a buttery smooth user experience, you’ll need to add optimistic updates and rollbacks. We do these steps over and over for every feature we build, which can…
