Interesting stuff! Which use cases do you think developers will use you most for?

There could be really interesting abstractions that people might build on top of this. Like automatically creating and animating infographics, making background sounds, or video cutting and recycling. If you spin this 100x further an entire video creation studio might emerge.

Which parts of Video Infrastructure do you want to build first? Which other higher-level parts could be built by you or users? Where could this go?

Thank you! As of now, many people use Revideo to programatically create Youtube videos (primarily entertainment content, think of AI generated memes and Youtube Shorts) and for use cases in video marketing (think automatically generating and A/B testing ads from a product portfolio). As the project becomes more mature and better, we want to enable developers to build more complex, and especially interactive video editors using the framework.

I'm glad you raise the point of reusability and people building abstractions - what I find really exciting about code as an interface for video editing (rather than GUI) is that it makes it much easier to create and share isolated, reusable components and functions. Especially as we are open source, I hope that many developers will build abstractions and share them on Github

Out of curiosity, what do you mean by "Video Creation Studio"? Would you add a visual interface for editing to Revideo?

Maybe not for editing per se. But for providing meta-functionalities to services built on top of revideo. Rendering, for instance, but maybe even reusable embeds, video watch analytics, download links, programatic re-rendering with webhooks and their configuration, etc. What other functionalities could you offer?
