This looks really interesting! What’s the primary use case for this? I read the README and didn’t see any discussion about why this was made.

I remember making something like this myself for a project involving video editor with a "premiere-pro" looking timeline in canvas. At the time I remember looking at other projects like this one but they would have jquery dependencies or a weird api. This one looks nice and would have saved time probably.
I'm building an editor like this right now. I'm wondering where you see the benefit of using a canvas for the timeline rather than html elements?

Would you be able to share any details?
