Headless rendering

Render videos without opening the UI

A Playwright-driven CLI turns the same canvas into GIF / WebM / MP4. Automate, batch, build into your pipeline.

npm run cli -- video ./my-project.json -o clip.webm
npm run cli -- image ./my-project.json -o frame.png

# batch (Dev tier)
for f in projects/*.json; do npm run cli -- video "$f" -o "out/$(basename $f).mp4"; done
⚡ Unique: no other free browser tool offers headless render

Questions

FAQ

Do I need an iPad or any app install?

No. WebCreate runs entirely in your browser — open the link and start drawing.

Is my artwork safe?

Projects are saved in your browser local storage. Free users should export regularly; Pro adds cloud sync + version history.

Can I render without the UI?

Yes — the CLI renders GIF/WebM/MP4 via Playwright, useful for batch jobs and pipelines.
