A web app to turn a video file into screenshots without a server. You select a video file from your computer and it extracts screenshots from various time points of the video. It all happens locally in your browser and there's no uploading to a server.
Blog post about it here.

GeezerVison is showing www.peterbe.com — About Peterbe.com About Peterbe.comPeter Bengtsson's blog  My name is Peter Bengtsson and I'm a web developer. This is my personal blog.
I work at Judi Health (formerly known as Capital Rx) as a full-stack developer. Prior to that GitHub, MDN Web Docs and Mozilla. The The Mycelium Network Podcast did an interview with me in August 2022. Link to episode on Apple and Spotify. Almost all of my work is Open Source and available on my GitHub account including this site itself: front-end, back-end. Side projectsSpot the Difference is a web app where you're shown two snippets of code and then you're supposed to find the one difference. If you get it right, you get showered in confetti. You Should Watch is a mobile-friendly web app for remembering and sharing movies and TV shows you should watch. Like a to-do list to open when you finally sit down with the remote in your hand. A web app where you bring your own data. Where the data is a repository of Markdown files. Then, you can query all of this Markdown data with SQL queries. Screenhots in the README. A grocery shopping and meal planning app. Built in Preact on the Firebase platform. WebSockets are promising because the connection is kept open so that sending new data has lower overheads than a regular XHR request. This app is a demo/playground to really test this in a production-grade setting. You can run your own test from your location and it will effectively give you an insight into the latency vs. overheads balance.
Everybody has to make a todo list app. This is my take. I wanted to build something exactly like I want/need it. A fun little Node script that uses puppeteer to open https://fast.com in a headless browser, extracts your current broadband speed and then draws an ASCII graph of the measurements plus a rolling average. This started as me trying to figure out how much contentmy preferred podcasts require me to listen to to keep up and not fall behind. Later I structured it with a real database and a web app to display it. Then in early 2017 I re-wrote the front-end entirely in React and added Elasticsearch on the back-end for better search. A mobile web game app where you play battleships against friends. With the silly name, iconography and sounds. The first prototype of this is simply a website but styled specifically for mobile use using Bulma. A GitHub Webhook receiver app that sends an email to certain people when a git commit comes in that contains the trigger word You enter the GitHub URL to a project and for each deployment target (e.g. "dev", "stage", "production") you enter a URL that points to a file that contains the git sha that is deployed there. Then you get an overview of what git commits been and not been deployed across those deployments. For example. Written in Flask. A webapp that makes it possible to test the popular premailer python librarywhich you use to prepare HTML for being sent as HTML emails. This site uses Falcon for the server and AngularJS for the front-end. The client-side build system uses Lineman.js. An autocomplete widget where you put some CSS and JS on your site and let autcompeter.com host the data. The server is written in Go and the Javascript is pure without any dependency on a framework. Code on GitHub. It started when I was optimizing a website whose HTML files were massive. Clearly the HTML contained too many DOM nodes. But where are these big clusters of nodes?! HTML Tree takes a URL, converts it to a tree in JSON which when combined with a D3 collapsible tree becomes easier to navigate. Code on GitHub. Using your network panel in your browser Web Console you can track how incredibly many requests many sites depend on. But, to find out how many different domains that spans you have to manually count each unique domain. Or use this tool. This is a mashup using the GitHub API to make a dashboard over all open Pull Requests on a GitHub project. It's a Flask backend for doing proxy caching of requests and an AngularJS front end. I blogged about it in more detail and the code is available on GitHub. Buggy is a singe-page webapp that relies entirely on the Bugzilla native REST API. The app is entirely client side and written in AngularJS and is entirely served from a CDN. I have blogged about it in more detail on my blog and the code is available on GitHub. Makes it possible for you to "crowdfund" your presents. Integrates with Amazon.com™'s Wish List functionality mashed with Balanced Payments. My first side-project with a full and real payment solution. Code written in Django with PostgreSQL. This app combined Leaflet with Filepicker.io with Amazon S3 to let you upload massive pictures and draw annotations on them to be able to zoom in, pan and share specific regions without having to download the whole image. And it works great on mobile too! If you haven't already done so, check out my new game: Around The World which is my spare time project. You can read more about it here but the best thing is to just start playing and see if you like it. It's for spotting out-of-state license plates in the US and tick them off on your smartphone. It started as a Bookmarklet so that when you're visiting twitter.com it appends, for each user you follow, whether they also follow you. Later, the most useful feature was the /everybody page where everyone you follow is split half between those who follow you and those that are too cool for you. In 2012 I re-wrote this site from scratch. Being very fast was important to me and I've blogged about how I made the server-side andclient-side fast. This is a full HTML5 calendar. It's fast and simple and has a practical API. This is a supporting site for the Tornado Web Server project. It uses the GitHub API for authentication and for pulling down gists automatically. My first real-time web game. The game is that you get paired up with another random player and you have to answer quiz questions as fast and accurate as possible. My first web app that let's Facebook, Twitter, Google, Persona all take care of the authentication. Crosstips first started as an experiment to do localization in Django. This was also my first ever non-English project. Using the recently published API from Transport from London I put together a Google Maps mashup that plots all the central London traffic cameras so you can easily see if your particular road is congested. This was my first project using client-side Geolocation. This was my first pure mobile web site. It's for my Fujian White Crane Kung Fu Club that I trained with when I lived in London. This site uses a remote database connection and is heavily cached. It's built taylor made for mobile as it goes straight to the basic details you need. |
