FFmpeg WebCLI runs full FFmpeg in the browser via WASM — no server, no uploads

tejaswigowda has packaged FFmpeg into a browser-based CLI using WebAssembly, letting you run real FFmpeg commands entirely client-side as an installable PWA. For indie makers building video tools or just needing occasional media conversion, it eliminates the need to spin up a server or pay for upload-based processing. The offline-first approach also means privacy stays with the user by default.
