Why are webshitters so afraid of desktop? Even when these sóydevs make something outside the browser, they still bring along their bloated web frameworks and build with either Flutter, React Native, or Electron.js . They seem incapable of making a regular application without making it a web app.
>>
>>101215117
not a webdev here but it's because frameworks on desktop computers are a fucking mess while chrome is pretty much universal on every device it runs on
>>

developing apps for chrome makes sense for a single developer whos biggest bottleneck is developer resources.

you cant afford wasting even a second of your time on anything but the core value-add, so outsourcing everything under the sun is very important. to this end, chrome is very attractive:

ui toolkit: 100% outsourced (html + css + react)
video acceleratio: 100% oursourced (<canvas> + getContext("3d"))
fast compute: 100% outsourced (wasm)
cross platform: do i even need to say?

the reason why its chrome-only is i suspect because chrome tends to be more liberal with the resources that a website has access to. for example, chrome gives websites the ability to connect to USB devices on the host, which lets you do cool things like flash various gadgets by simply accessing a website, but firefox tends to be against that. both have strong arguments, and usually chrome tends to be more liberal, and firefox more privacy/safety concious.

anyway, like other anons have said, if this video editor gets even the slightest of traction he will get a buyout offer almost immediately simply to prevent a potential competitor. this is a pretty good exit strategy if youre a competent programmer, but it might not last much longer given that money isn't free anymore.

I tried topaz's AI denoise some months ago and it produces photos that basically look straight out of a smartphone.
Of course since both use AI denoising it's expected, but it got me thinking about how the "smartphone look" may be desirable these days.

>>101213843
Just tried to use it. It can't import image sequences which is of the utmost importance for VFX and 3D animation. It also isn't compatible with OpenEXR files or OCIO which means it can't reliably work with the ACES color system used in professional post-production.

It's a cool idea nonetheless I guess, but it won't be competing with After Effects in the professional space in its current state,

Wrong. He’ll get bought out. The software will go into the trash. He’ll be locked in a virtual dungeon not allowed to build or design anything until his mind starts to fail.

This. We’re working on a dating app whose sole differentiating factor is that there’s no AI. I’ve had VCs call me an “asshole”, an “idiot” and a “chaos agent”.

You can see them seethe when we say we have no intention of adding AI at any point. Usually they just say “not for me” or “not interested” - their response to our app has told us everything we need to know.

Sadly, this. I was actually very interested at first then read browser only (chrome of all things). Good for him though, but sticking with regular installed software. Figma for example, where you have to log in to a browser to use their installed software, got sick of getting logged out, kek. Now I just use Lunacy. In browser apps are no bueno.

>>101220502
This is standard. How else do you get hired for these sorts of jobs? I had to make a bunch of goofy ass websites before I landed mine.
>>
>>101221223
that's not what is understood as frontend
for example if you write a webgl application you're doing GPU programming and not "frontend" regardless of it running in the browser
>>
after effects = fisher price

this guy does VFX and most likely uses Nuke by the foundry.

this most likely sucks
>>
i doubt it can handle a demanding project without breaking
similar thing with natron vs nuke

Use ungoogled-chromium and stop acting like a child.
Firefox is a pitiful browser that's still struggling to catch up with modern browser standards.
The false sense of "privacy" is the only thing of value that dogshit browser provides.
>>
>>101221642
The browser running on your computer locally is the runtime environment for the web app so unless its streaming, which it isn't because its a free app, yes. You can confirm this by inspecting the webpage in your browser.

Who asked for this?
He should've focused his efforts on making a decent Photoshop alternative if he really wanted to land a job as a front-end developer.

No, that dumpster fire isn't and will never be as powerful as Photoshop.

We don't need more VFX suites, we need a decent Photoshop replacement ASAP.

Well the only thing I wish it had from what I read here is being open source and free, with an option to run it in electron. It looks like a nice project.
Being incompatible with firefox is kind of a bummer, I'd want my JS apps to work there too.
Webshit apps that run offline are pretty nice because they just work on all platforms.

You can layer mask, but yes, there's no spline masking for assets.

If you've used After Effects you can tell within 10 seconds that this is not an alternative.

ironically, adobe programs back then barely occupy 1 gig in storage, so loading an entire program at the memory is possible now given how massive their capacity is. [spoiler]future Adobe apps will be memory-only so it will be impossible to pirate.[/spoiler]
