Apache-2.0
Video generation
What it does
Turns HTML, CSS, media and seekable animations into deterministic MP4 files, so the same source always renders the same video — which is what makes templated output, swapping only the numbers or copy, practical at volume. Drive it from the CLI locally, from an AI coding agent via its skills, or as the rendering core behind a hosted workflow. It is not a replacement for a timeline editor: motion graphics and data-driven explainers fit, cutting live footage does not. Node and FFmpeg required. Apache-2.0.
