# MotionText SaaS Tool A professional-grade web-based video editor for motion typography. ## Tech Stack - **Frontend**: React (UI), Remotion (Video Engine) - **Styling**: Tailwind CSS - **Deployment**: Next.js or Vite (Frontend), Node.js (Backend) ## Deployment Instructions (Production) ### 1. Frontend Deploy the React application as a Static Site (Vercel, Netlify, or AWS S3 + CloudFront). ### 2. Backend (The Render Engine) Remotion rendering is CPU intensive. For a scalable SaaS: - **AWS Lambda**: Use `@remotion/lambda` to spin up thousands of parallel renders. - **Node.js + FFmpeg**: If self-hosting, ensure FFmpeg is installed in your Docker container. Use the `@remotion/renderer` package to execute the `renderVideo` command. ### 3. Scaling for SaaS - **S3 Storage**: Store rendered files in an S3 bucket with a TTL (Time To Live). - **Webhooks**: Use webhooks to notify the frontend when a render is complete. - **Caching**: Cache compositions and assets to speed up previewing. ## Future Presets Implementation The modular structure in `remotion/animations/` allows adding the remaining 8 presets (Liquid, Shatter, etc.) as independent React components using `canvas` or `svg` filters for high performance.
