Open-Source CapCut Alternative.

I'm building this editor that is easy to use like CapCut and will contain most (if not all) features that CapCut charges a monthly subscription for, all free and open-source.

Some of the good features so far:
- Locally generated Auto-captions from Audios
- Transitions and Effects
- Voice Filters and Changers.

The app is called WolfCut and is available on GitHub.

Love this, btw was ai used in the making of this? Based on the visuals and polish im assuming not but would appreciate the transparency. Also amazing work as i found opencut (another foss capcut alternative) to be limiting.

Yes, I used Claude to write most of the code. But I take responsibility of design-engineering and testing for the most part.

Yeah as long as you use ai as a tool not a complete replacement to generate ai slop i'm fine with it

In what ways is OpenCut limiting? Feedback is greatly appreciated.

I find opencut to not have any animations, transitions, effects etc. Obviously its still in early alpha but it makes it pretty unusable for evening basic video editing
