🎞️ CompressorX

A fast, lightweight desktop video compressor built with Tauri (Rust) and TypeScript.

🚀 About the Project

CompressorX is a desktop application I built to solve my own video compression needs while diving deeper into modern web technologies like Tauri, Rust, and TypeScript. It's designed to be efficient, easy to use, and beginner-friendly—even if you're not familiar with video compression tools.

✨ Features

  • 🎥 Drag & Drop Support – Simply drag your video file into the app
  • 📊 Real-Time Progress – Watch your compression in action
  • 🎯 Resolution Options – Choose from Original, 720p, 480p, or 360p
  • ⚙️ Advanced Settings – Customize bitrate and buffer size
  • 🌙 Sleek Dark UI – Clean and modern interface
  • 📈 Compression Stats – See detailed info about file size reduction
  • 📁 Easy File Access – Open output files with a single click
  • 🦀 Built in Rust – High performance, low resource usage
  • 🎬 Bundled with FFmpeg – No external downloads required
  • 💻 Currently Windows Only – Support for 64-bit Windows 10/11

🧰 Requirements

To use the app (users):

  • Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit)

To build from source (developers):

🛠️ Installation

🏁 Download Prebuilt App

Grab the latest Windows installer from the Releases page and run the .msi file.

🔧 Build from Source

  1. Install Git LFS

    choco install git-lfs # Or install from https://git-lfs.com/

  2. Clone the Repository

    git lfs install
git clone https://github.com/Amitminer/CompressorX.git
cd CompressorX
git lfs pull # Pull FFmpeg binaries

  3. Install Node Dependencies

    npm install

  4. Run in Dev Mode

    npm run tauri dev

  5. Build for Production

    npm run tauri build

Output will be available in src-tauri/target/release.

🧪 How to Use

  1. Launch CompressorX
  2. Drag & drop your video or click Browse Files
  3. Pick a resolution
  4. Optionally adjust bitrate & buffer size
  5. Click Compress Video
  6. Monitor progress and view stats
  7. Open your compressed video instantly

📚 What I Learned

This project helped me grow in a lot of areas:

  • TypeScript + Tailwind CSS workflows
  • Rust's performance and safety benefits
  • Cross-platform desktop development with Tauri
  • How FFmpeg works under the hood
  • Bridging TypeScript and Rust
  • Clean UI/UX design for technical tools
  • Writing clear documentation (like this!)

🧰 Requirements
To use the app (users):
  • Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit)
To build from source (developers):
🛠️ Installation
🏁 Download Prebuilt App
Grab the latest Windows installer from the Releases page and run the .msi file.
🔧 Build from Source
  1. Install Git LFS
    choco install git-lfs # Or install from https://git-lfs.com/
  2. Clone the Repository
    git lfs install
git clone https://github.com/Amitminer/CompressorX.git
cd CompressorX
git lfs pull # Pull FFmpeg binaries
  3. Install Node Dependencies
    npm install
  4. Run in Dev Mode
    npm run tauri dev
  5. Build for Production
    npm run tauri build
Output will be available in src-tauri/target/release.
🧪 How to Use
  1. Launch CompressorX
  2. Drag & drop your video or click Browse Files
  3. Pick a resolution
  4. Optionally adjust bitrate & buffer size
  5. Click Compress Video
  6. Monitor progress and view stats
  7. Open your compressed video instantly
📚 What I Learned
This project helped me grow in a lot of areas:
  • TypeScript + Tailwind CSS workflows
  • Rust's performance and safety benefits
  • Cross-platform desktop development with Tauri
  • How FFmpeg works under the hood
  • Bridging TypeScript and Rust
  • Clean UI/UX design for technical tools
  • Writing clear documentation (like this!)

🎞️ CompressorX
A fast, lightweight desktop video compressor built with Tauri (Rust) and TypeScript.
🚀 About the Project
CompressorX is a desktop application I built to solve my own video compression needs while diving deeper into modern web technologies like Tauri, Rust, and TypeScript. It's designed to be efficient, easy to use, and beginner-friendly—even if you're not familiar with video compression tools.
✨ Features
  • 🎥 Drag & Drop Support – Simply drag your video file into the app
  • 📊 Real-Time Progress – Watch your compression in action
  • 🎯 Resolution Options – Choose from Original, 720p, 480p, or 360p
  • ⚙️ Advanced Settings – Customize bitrate and buffer size
  • 🌙 Sleek Dark UI – Clean and modern interface
  • 📈 Compression Stats – See detailed info about file size reduction
  • 📁 Easy File Access – Open output files with a single click
  • 🦀 Built in Rust – High performance, low resource usage
  • 🎬 Bundled with FFmpeg – No external downloads required
  • 💻 Currently Windows Only – Support for 64-bit Windows 10/11
