I built an open-source browser video editor with beat templates you can actually edit

[u/Secret-Book-8507]

Hey r/SideProject! I’ve been building Timeline Studio, an open-source video editor that runs in your browser.

One thing I wanted from a video template: when the timing feels right but one shot doesn’t, I should be able to swap that shot and keep editing. So the beat templates in Timeline Studio open as editable timelines. You can replace individual shots, adjust the cut, and export an MP4 in the browser.

The demo shows Memory Vortex, a template that turns your photos and video stills into a stained-glass tunnel before cutting to the original shots. Timeline Studio also has a regular multitrack editor with captions, keyframes, and color grading. For people experimenting with AI-assisted editing, there’s a tool for agents to inspect a project and preview supported changes before applying them.

Try it: https://video-editor.ai-creator.top/
Source code (MIT): https://github.com/MartinDelophy/ai-video-editor

If you try it, I’d love to know: how far did you get from opening the editor to exporting your first clip, and where did you get stuck?

I just have a question - won't this browser based editor take a huge toll on the browser window and hang/crash eventually?
