A bit of a work-in-progress, but it does the job for now.\n\n## Install\n\nOnce you clone the repo, follow these steps to get up and running quickly.\n\n- First install [`ffmpeg`](https://ffmpeg.org/) with Homebrew:\n  ```bash\n  brew install ffmpeg\n  ```\n- Next, ensure that you have Node \u003e v14. If you're using [NVM](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm#nvmrc) already, just run `nvm use` in this project.\n  ```bash\n  nvm install v14.2.0\n  ```\n  - This is because this project uses [ESM module imports](https://nodejs.org/api/esm.html).\n- Install the dependencies.\n  ```bash\n  yarn install\n  ```\n- Run a simple command to create the `input/` and `output/` directories (or just create them yourself).\n  ```\n  yarn run initialize\n  ```\n\n## Usage\n\nChuck your `.mp4` or `.gif` files into the `input/` folder. Run `yarn start` to convert them. Compressed gif files will appear in the `output/` directory.\n\nThe next time you run it, it will skip any `input/` files which have already been converted into `output/`\n\n## Roadmap\n\nHere's some stuff I would like to do to improve this in the future:\n\n- Better gif compression.\n- Resize to a smaller, more sane size/format.\n- Watch mode, so you can just chuck files into the `input/` folder.\n- Publish as a service, either via CLI or as a web app (or both).\n\n## License\n\n[Licensed under MIT](https://github.com/himynameisdave/gifzone/blob/master/LICENSE) - [Dave Lunny](https://twitter.com/himynameisdave) 2020.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhimynameisdave%2Fgifzone","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fhimynameisdave%2Fgifzone","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhimynameisdave%2Fgifzone/lists"}
