react-player
A React component for playing a variety of URLs, including file paths, YouTube, Facebook, Twitch, SoundCloud, Streamable, Vimeo, Wistia and DailyMotion
-
mediabunny
Pure TypeScript media toolkit for reading, writing, and converting video and audio files, directly in the browser.
Project mention: Rendering MP4 travel videos entirely in the browser with WebCodecs | dev.to | 2026-08-23WebCodecs gives you encoded chunks, not a playable file. You still need an MP4 container. I use mediabunny for this, and it has a killer feature: it can take an AAC audio file and mux the track in without re-encoding. Background music adds zero encoding cost.

Project mention: OpenDAW – open-source web-based Digital Audio Workstation | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-09-16
Okay but how do I actually run it? Do I need to self-host it?
"A new holistic exploration of music creation inside your browser."
So it's a browser app, but not hosted on a website anywhere?
I was expecting a link in the GitHub README to run the app but there was nothing.
Eventually, I scrolled back up to find https://opendaw.org/ listed in the right sidebar.
I was expecting a big huge "Run app" button on the main page of the website but instead there's just a picture of a fake box (?) and an FAQ that... doesn't show how to actually run the app.
At the top we've got openDAW (which does _not_ run the app), Mission, Features, Ambassadors, Education, Contribute, Imprint... none of those run the app!
Going back to the README, I see a tiny section about how to "Prepare, Clone, Installation, and Run" but that's as a sub-header to "And big hugs to all our supporters!" so I'm not sure it's related?
Anyway, I give up, could be an interesting project though.

Project mention: Show HN: Descript wanted $24/mo, I built an open-source alternative in a weekend | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-07-26
Hey @dcreater, I’ve just pushed a big update that adds a lot of manual controls over the start/end of words as well as the ability to manually split clips and insert skips. I also deployed a larger, more accurate speech model (whisper small); you can use the model selector to try it out! https://github.com/wassgha/rescript/
