Clip - In-browser video compression
The easiest way to optimize videos. No software installation necessary.
There were multiple reasons for this project: - I figured that emscripten could theoretically be used to compile ffmpeg for the browser ~ and that someone already did that. - I sometimes send video snapshots from gameplay over Discord, and Discord has a 6mb file limit. - I was involved in some content sites that use videos and properly compressing videos for web usage has some pitfalls.
So this web application was the combination of all these factors. The idea is to just have a few dynamic presets, that properly optimize based on the source video for the best resultsso that the user doesn't need deep knowledge about codecs, bitrates, container tweaks etc.

Texel - Text element editor
A tool to easily view and edit text/translation files in your software projects.
This project was the result of the question on how to help someone change text strings in a project with the least amount of integration effort. Since everything I do, when integrating text changes, is just copying the text into translation files and committing them, I thought that building a tool that could abstract away GIT and JSON/YAML files would be a good idea.
I don't think I'll actually ever use this project like this, but I found another great use. Modern Chrome allows a web application to access an entire folder, so I implemented scanning a local project for translation files. This is actually awesome, since it is easier to edit text in tables than in JSON files. You just need a great translation extractor tool in your projects like i18next-parser.

Youtube Music fix volume ratio
Makes the YouTube music volume slider exponential so it's easier to select lower volumes.
This was a small side project where I was just annoyed that YouTube Music is unusable as a background service simply because you can't get it quiet enough.
It is technically my most successful project to date but it's also less than 10 lines of codes. Such is fait.
