Coming Soon: @redotvideo v0.10.0 This is the biggest release we've ever done and provides a so much better experience for those building apps with Revideo. Super excited to share it in a few days!

A few weeks ago, we've stopped spending 80% of our time fixing small bugs and building every feature that our Discord server asks for, and to instead be more opinionated and to address bigger issues that held @redotvideo back. Within these three to four weeks, the framework has improved more than in the previous three to four months. Most of the stuff we're building is not yet merged, but will soon be, and I'm now at a point where I can confidently say that Revideo is the best option to build video apps, regardless of whether it's a paid service or an open source library (something I wouldn't have said before!). Of course, we're also still working on smaller feature requests, but we'll continue to be more opinionated - I'm really excited for where the library will be at the end of the year if we keep going like we did in the past weeks :)

Really excited about the new (imo beautiful) Templates section coming to our website soon. Too many people looking at re.video still think that its main purpose is creating standalone videos, rather than building video apps. Hopefully this makes things clearer

What I'm currently working on: Making it easy to build drag-and-drop functionality into your editor

🧵1/3 I've been tinkering around with @threejs today and published a small example showing how to use it with Revideo I like the design / animation primitives of Motion Canvas / Revideo, but I also notice that we sometimes run into limitations since they're rather opinionated.

this is such a cool application for AI & video, really exciting to see more creative use cases than Youtube Shorts

Tomorrow is the day: we are launching on Product Hunt! 😻 After many pivots, it seems that we have finally landed on something - no other product we shipped has come close to our current traction! If you want to support us, you can get notified here: producthunt.com/products/rev…

Took some time to make my first real Youtube video: An explainer / launch video about @redotvideo, created with @redotvideo:

Last week, we 70x-ed rendering speeds, both times by replacing ffmpeg with the WebCodecs API. We finally got around to doing a blog post: re.video/blog/faster-renderi… On my Macbook, I'm now able to render 60s of a full-HD, 30fps video, in 14 seconds. Pretty excited about this!

This week, we were able to bring some insane rendering speed improvements to @redotvideo. Below you can see the speed comparison when rendering a 1-min, full HD, 30 fps video on my mac. Last week's v0.4.2: takes ~3-4 minutes This week's v0.4.4: takes 14 seconds 🚀 1/6

We're trending on Github (for Typescript) together with our S23 friends @twentycrm 🫶

We're on the frontpage of HN! Big day for @redotvideo 🫡

TIL that @redotvideo was featured as a top 100 open source startup by YC! I don't really know how this list is curated, but it's nice to be listed alongside companies like @gitlab or @posthog, as well as our friends at @langfuse and @ReworkdAI! ycombinator.com/companies/in…

We redesigned re.video. Quite happy with the result!
