About this project

This project offers a JavaScript library intended to serve as a drop-in replacement for the native WebCodecs API. The WebCodecs API provides web applications with low-level access to media codecs, enabling advanced video and audio processing directly within the browser. This library aims to replicate that functionality, allowing developers to encode and decode video and audio frames, and manage raw audio and video data. While still in its early stages of development, described as "not yet extendable and not yet complete," it targets developers who need to work with media streams and codecs in web environments, potentially as a polyfill for browsers without full WebCodecs support or for specific development needs.
