Oh, no, I have nothing there, sorry! haha

I'm using ffmpeg.wasm, it's basically ffmpeg compiled for the browser, and it's a simple layer where you basically treat it like the ffmpeg command, eg:

ffmpeg.run(['-i', 'input.gif', ..., 'output.gif').then(() => { // handle output file })

Don't sell yourself short, the cli args aren't easier either.

True! When I first started building a video creation app, I was flailing around with google searches to find snippets to use. It was such a relief to spend an hour reading ffmpeg docs to understand how it works.

And I'm still learning a ton :)
