and you found that link how? am I just missing it in TFA?

Edit: What do the buttons next to the play/pause button do? Typically, I'd expect to frame advance, or jump to next the next clip. I click and see nothing happening. I dropped two images I uploaded into the timeline, yet there's nothing visible in the timeline. The monitor shows something, but nothing in the timeline indicating how the clip fits in the timeline. There's not indication of what the frame size of the timeline is. The images look like they are being stretched/squeezed to fit, but there's also no indication in the media bin about the media like duration/size/etc.

This really feels targeted for people with no previous knowledge of a video editor. It also just has that feel of "do something quick to make a post with it's AI to HN".

The link is on the GitHub repo.

As for the feedback, fair enough. As I said, this is just a demo and it's in its early stages. It has no goal of replacing professional video editors or even matching their features. Some annoying bugs and missing features, we will tackle them.

As for your last comment, feel free to judge, but I can say it was not quick at all to do this just to post on HN. You can check all the commit history and the codebase so you can have an idea how much care was put into it.

It is quite clear by the result that you've spent all of your time/effort building some front end to genAI vs making a video editor. As of now, I see very little that looks like a video editor. There is no basic transport controls, there's no obvious way of trimming clips, there's nothing that says "you can edit videos" in this.

This is a very premature demo that does more harm than good in promoting your product. If you said we built a tool that makes it easy to generate content, then you'd have a much more interesting product. Tacking on claims of this being a video editor is extremely disappointing, as the most basic of abilities of a video editor are missing. This is what brings on the criticism of being a rushed product launch just for the PR postings.
