Nebulon

A simple desktop video editor: drag-and-drop import, a multi-track timeline with standard hotkeys, and MP4 export

ElectronNode.jsffmpeg

Overview

Nebulon is a lightweight video editor built on Electron and a bundled ffmpeg.

Drag media onto the panel, drop clips onto video (V1/V2) and audio (A1) tracks, trim from either edge, and export to MP4. The export builds an ffmpeg filter_complex from the project model.

A magnet toggle snaps clips to edges and the playhead and prevents overlaps; turn it off for free placement.
