    From the README

    Mediabunny is a JavaScript library for reading, writing, and converting media files (like MP4, WebM, MP3), directly in the browser. It aims to be a complete toolkit for high-performance media operations on the web. It's written from scratch in pure TypeScript, has zero dependencies, is very performant, and is extremely tree-shakable, meaning you only include what you use. You can think of it a bit like FFmpeg, but built from the ground up for the web.
