Show HN: I made an open-source video editor

[hyeongjun]

It's an open source video editor designed for motion effects and versatility. developed with electronjs / TypeScript, FFmpeg, Litjs.

I'm currently focusing on making it easier to edit long-form videos. Specifically, adding subtitles to podcast episodes or creating short-form content from YouTube videos.

And I’m also developing several extensible utilities. For example, recording video with a floating webcam—similar to Loom—or using LLMs to make cut editing easier. To make all this possible, I believe the first step is to build a versatile, general-purpose video editor.

Cool stuff, I like how clean the app looks. Since it's on Electron, is there any chance it can run as a web app? I think there would be a lot of excitement for a web-based video editor that's actually decent to use, even if it doesn't have the greatest performance.

Thank you! I'm also considering web-based editing. Currently, I have adopted Electron due to its ease of low-cost operation.

This is well done. Does it have to be an electron app, or could this UI be embedded in an existing site, as a component?

Really cool! why did you create this? what's the vision?

[hyeongjun]

For now, I'm developing it as a hobby. My ultimate goal is to create a general-purpose editor (like code editor). Specific use cases would include 'podcast editing' and 'short-form video editing'.
