What do people build with it?

USE CASE 1

Generate branded MP4 or transparent overlay videos for social content without editing animation code.

USE CASE 2

Add a data visualization clip like a bar chart or counter to a video using a reusable template.

USE CASE 3

Render transparent WebM or MOV overlays to layer on top of talking-head footage.

USE CASE 4

Extend the template library by having an AI coding agent follow the project's own contribution rules.

Requires Node.js, npm, and a local FFmpeg install for transparent MOV conversion.

So what is it?

This project is a library of reusable video motion templates, built on a rendering engine called HyperFrames. Each animation lives as its own self-contained template that can be previewed, checked, and rendered independently. Text, numbers, colors, and other changeable content are passed in as parameters, so a user does not need to touch the animation source code to reuse a template with new content. The repository currently includes twenty templates covering three kinds of scenes: data visualization such as bar charts, number counters, and line charts, transparent overlay graphics meant to sit on top of other footage, and knowledge or explainer style scenes. Every template supports being exported as a solid-background MP4, a transparent MOV, or a transparent WebM, so it can be dropped into different video editors. The transparent MOV format is converted automatically using FFmpeg, which must be installed locally for that feature to work. To use it, a person clones the repository, installs dependencies with npm, and runs a local development server that opens a browser interface for browsing templates, adjusting parameters, and saving presets or generating draft videos. There is also a command line option for rendering a specific template directly from a preset file. All rendering happens on the user's own machine using Chrome, FFmpeg, and HyperFrames, so there is no cloud rendering cost. The project also documents how an AI coding agent could extend the library with new templates, pointing to specific files like SYSTEM.md and AGENT_GUIDE.md that describe the rules for adding new motion templates in a consistent, catalogued way. A GitHub Pages demo site lets people preview the templates and read usage guidance without cloning the project.
