New here? Start with these three.

Everything here is a card — click one to open the full detail. There are three tabs: Open-source repos (what you can run yourself), Apps & websites (the paid platforms), and Terminology (the words that appear in every brief and regulation — start there if the vocabulary is new to you).

On the repos side there are 28, and you do not need all of them. Read in this order:

1. FFmpeg — the foundation. Resizing, blur-padding, burning in subtitles, joining clips, encoding. Nearly every other tool here shells out to it, so learning its filter syntax pays back everywhere.
2. faster-whisper — turns speech into text with per-word timings. That word timing is what makes karaoke-style captions possible.
3. Remotion — videos written as React components. This is how templated video gets made: one composition, different data, many outputs.

After that, pick by the job in front of you. Use the Purpose filter to jump to a category, and the Hardware filter to see only what your machine can actually run.
