About CodeReels

The video editor purpose‑built for developers, educators, and technical creators. Compose videos like code, with precision control over captions, code highlights, and a professional timeline.

Developer‑first design

Syntax‑aware code overlays, diff transitions, and keyboard‑friendly editing make technical videos feel native.

Powerful timeline

Multi‑track timeline with snapping, zoom, and layered items for media, captions, and code.

AI‑assisted workflow

Accurate transcription, smart timing for captions, and assistive editing to remove dead air.

Our mission

Make it effortless for technical people to teach and share knowledge through high‑quality video. Traditional NLEs are heavy and generic. CodeReels gives you a focused toolchain that fits developer workflows, from code‑centric visuals to reproducible exports.

How it’s built

  • Remotion compositions

  • Next.js 15 + React 19

    Modern app router, server components, and streaming for a responsive editor.

  • Supabase + Drizzle

    Typed Postgres schema powering projects, assets, and polymorphic timeline items.

  • Trigger.dev exports

    Reliable background jobs for rendering and delivery of final videos.

What we value

  • Precision by default

    Frame‑accurate editing, clear timing controls, and predictable exports.

  • Composability

    Reusable templates for captions and code, consistent themes, and componentized overlays.

  • Performance

    Virtualized timeline interactions, 60fps canvas operations, and smart caching.

  • Extensibility

    Polymorphic content model—add images, text overlays, and shapes without schema churn.
