About This Project

An open-source tool for playing local video files directly in the browser, including the ability to load subtitle files alongside them — no upload, no transcoding, everything stays on the machine.

Key Features

  • Local Video Playback: Plays local video files directly in the browser without uploading them anywhere.
  • Subtitle Integration: Load subtitle files alongside a video, which most browser-based players don't support.

Technology Stack

Frontend

HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React

Project Outcome

A small open-source utility that solves a specific annoyance: watching a local file with subtitles without installing a desktop player.
