What is FilmCraft
FilmCraft is ArtCraft's open-source nonlinear video editor. It now publishes a WebAssembly release alongside desktop builds, so a browser workflow is available even though older guides describe it as desktop-only.
Source code is published under MIT or Apache-2.0. The app and its bundled assets have their own notices; this independent site keeps the upstream web build unchanged.

How to use FilmCraft online
Import a small test clip
Choose a short, non-sensitive sample in a format supported by the browser release.
Make a short sequence
Place the clip on the timeline, make a cut and preview the result.
Save and test an export
Download the project and try a short output before building a longer sequence.
Make room for the work
Build a sequence
Bring a small set of compatible clips into a timeline and establish the edit before adding effects.
Shape the pacing
Trim and arrange clips while checking the relationship between picture and sound.
Test the delivery path
Try a short export early. Browser media support, codecs and hardware capabilities can differ from the native build.
What you can and cannot do yet
Use the features above as a starting point. Keep these limits in view:
- A web release now exists, but browser and native media capabilities can differ.
- Codecs, hardware acceleration, large files and export paths depend on your build and environment.
- Premiere project, plugin and professional delivery compatibility should not be assumed.
