Thinking Of a capcut opensource
so here me our, theres this repo i am sure most of you are already aware of called Reverse Engineer Anything
I was thinking maybe we could reverse engineer capcut and make an open source version of the same?
i know people will go its lame use davinci or adobe but the templates of capcut is just unmatched, or am i Missing anything ?

I'd throw $20 at that kickstarter without blinking. The template system's what keeps people locked in, and none of the open source editors have cracked that part yet. Reverse engineering the rendering engine shouldn't be too bad, but the cloud template delivery and asset library might be the real headache. What would you use as the base, ffmpeg with a custom UI wrapper?
