# video editing timeline with trim, reorder and undo — spoolcast A timeline for the finished cut — trim any clip, drag beats into a new order, undo anything, with every edit synced back to the real rendered footage.

That one change removes the whole class of bugs where reordering a beat made a clip lose track of which shot it belonged to. Edits route through the engine instead of being applied in the browser, so the timeline and the render can never disagree about what the video is. **Built with** Python engine, React + TypeScript + Vite front end on Cloudflare Pages, ffmpeg and Remotion for render. ## Links [Site or demo]() Status and dates describe the published record, not a recent test of an external service.
