/ About /

VideoFlow is an open-source TypeScript toolkit that lets developers define videos as portable JSON data structures and render them in the browser, on a server, or inside a React editor. It provides cinema-grade primitives including 27 transitions, 42 GLSL effects, and layer groups. The library is designed for programmatic video creation, treating video as structured data rather than a timeline-based editing workflow.

/ How it works /

Developers define video compositions as JSON using the VideoFlow TypeScript API, then call a render method that outputs the video on any supported surface.

/ Who it's for /

software developers and engineers building programmatic video workflows
