Hello HN! It's been almost 5 years ago since I launched Remotion on Hacker News. Since then, we've slowly built various products that are useful for people building video editors. Over 25.000 commits later and many battles fought, we're putting the best parts into one template: The Remotion Editor Starter! Not least because of Remotion, more and more people are launching video editors on the web. With the Editor Starter, we hope to enable people to ship video editors faster and more importantly, in higher quality!

Jonny and team are amazing builders. Their attention to details is top notch. Have played around with the editor and I would say, it's the best I have seen on the web!

Great work from Remotion team :)

The best starter kit for video editors, period. Been following development, Jonny and team have cooked!

I’ve been using Remotion for years as the backbone for video generation in my app, and this is by far the most complete starting point I’ve seen. Building a robust, performant and scalable video editor interface is incredibly hard and there are so many details to get right.

This template nails so many of the challenges I’ve struggled with, and after trying the demo I’m really impressed with how well it all comes together. Congrats on the launch! 🎉

@ujlm Yay 🙌 Thanks Ulysse, glad you are having a good time with Remotion 😊

Sebastian Semeniuc

Amazing job! Been following the evolution of the editor starter for some time now. Excited to see where it goes.

Jonny Burger

@sebastian_semeniuc Thanks for being one of the first to get it! Looking forward to what you are building with it.

Leland Kiehn

As someone who's been building video editing tools for a while, this is exactly what I've been looking for. The timeline component alone would've saved me months of work on my last project!

Jonny Burger

@trytrycc Yay! 🙌 Glad this is exactly what you need!

Emiliano Parizzi

If you've ever attempted to build a web-based video editor, you know it is quite challenging.

The Remotion team has build one and it's fantastic! It's quick and responsive, and the code is well-organized. I couldn't recommend it more highly.

Excellent job, Jonny!

Jonny Burger

@empz Thank you Emiliano! 🤗
