Hey PH 👋 — I'm Shub, founder of Cenvero. Cetus started from a simple frustration: every HTML-to-video tool I tried fell apart the moment the environment changed. Different machine, different output. Missing ffmpeg, broken Node version, wrong Chrome — something always broke. So I built Cetus to embed everything. Bundled Chrome. Bundled ffmpeg. One binary. curl | sh and it works. Same HTML file, same video, anywhere. A few things I'm especially proud of: – Parallel frame capture (--concurrency N) for fast renders – Resumable renders — crash at frame 1600 of 2000, --resume picks up exactly there – Portable frame dirs via config.cetus manifest — capture on one machine, encode on another – Full audio pipeline (--audio, --audio-fade-in/out, --audio-loop, etc.) – cetus preview — live dev server so you iterate without re-rendering – JSON progress output for CI pipelines – Go API (pkg/cetus) to embed rendering directly in your app It's early — rough edges exist. If anything breaks, please open an issue. Every report directly shapes what gets fixed next. If this solves a problem for you, a ⭐ on GitHub means a lot.

We just open-sourced Cetus — render HTML to video with a single binary.

Been building this quietly for a while. Shipping it today.

Cetus is an HTML-to-video renderer write HTML with CSS animations, GSAP, Three.js, WebGL, whatever. Cetus captures every frame with a bundled headless Chrome and pipes it through bundled ffmpeg. One binary, fully self-contained.
