FFmpeg WebCLI

FFmpeg WebCLI is a progressive web app that brings the full power of FFmpeg to your browser using WebAssembly. It processes media files locally on your device, meaning no files are ever uploaded to a server. This solves privacy and speed concerns for users who need to convert, trim, or analyze video and audio files without relying on cloud services. The app works offline as a PWA, making it a reliable tool for on-the-go media processing. Based on community signals so far, it appears to be a fresh launch on GitHub, offering a convenient way to access FFmpeg's extensive capabilities through a web interface. While the project is new, its approach of using WASM to run a complex tool like FFmpeg in the browser is technically sound and addresses real user needs for privacy and offline functionality.

A new GitHub repository appeared, demonstrating full FFmpeg in the browser via WASM, gaining attention on Hacker News for its offline PWA and no-upload approach.
