I'm working on a static site generator for video¹ - think PeerTube/YouTube, but entirely static. I've posted a brief introduction (video) two weeks ago (see thread), today I'm sharing an excerpt of something I just wrapped up: Customizable aspect ratio for thumbnails. This gives flexibility to build sites for anything from cinematic (super wide) trailer collections to specialty formats (square?), to TikTok-ey mobile video logs (portrait). \o/

The whole thing is called the "Hyper 8 Video System", and there's a ton more to say about it (because so much is already there!), but for now I'm mostly focusing on keeping development and design work at a fast pace, and talking/writing less. But stay tuned for more! ( ^◡^)

Development is happening in the open at https://codeberg.org/simonrepp/hyper8

(¹ this is in the making for the last 6 months or so already!)
