Open source for the next builder

RELEASE THE CODE. BUILD THE FUTURE.

Hard problems should not have to be solved from zero over and over. When YoLogics figures out something genuinely useful, we document it, release it, and give the next builder a head start—so their time goes into the idea only they can create.

Tools from the bench.

This page moves fast. Some releases are polished, some are developer-first, and some are still evolving. If it solves your problem, use it.

v0.1.0

Video Converter Core

A reusable FFmpeg conversion engine born from a very real problem: phone videos that look fine on a device but will not preview or edit reliably in a browser.

Video Converter Core accepts local video paths and timeline ranges, then produces browser-ready H.264/AAC MP4 output. It keeps the conversion logic separate from any one product, so it can power an editor, a conversion service, or a custom workflow.

Why we release

A breakthrough for us could be a launchpad for others.

We know what it feels like to spend hours chasing a problem that should already have a solution. When something finally works, its value is bigger than one product. It can become time another builder gets back.

That is the point of YoLogics Open Tools: share the lessons from our hard-won battles behind the computer so others can start farther ahead and go on to create something great.

Take the code. Learn from it. Change it. Make it better. Then go build something incredible.
