> Any reason you couldn't bundle this into an Electron application?

I know people hate on Electron (sometimes rightfully so), but this does seem like a nice use case, meet your users wherever they are, even offline!

As for when I need something native, Kdenlive is pretty nice: https://kdenlive.org/ (it's FOSS, they could probably also use a donation https://kdenlive.org/en/fund/)

Oh and DaVinci Resolve, even though effects aren't the main focus (it's a fully featured editing suite): https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve

This is exactly why I would hands down always prefer an electron wrapped application over a web app if given a choice between the two.

This is even more important if the app uses some kind of proprietary project file format, since if the website goes down you won't even be able to recover your project (without heavy reverse engineering potentially).
