Comet brings video, audio, and image conversion into one desktop interface. Built with Electron, Vue, and TypeScript, it uses FFmpeg for audio and video and Jimp for images, processing files locally on the user’s computer. The application includes drag-and-drop file selection, batch conversion, output-format and destination selection, audio/video progress tracking, and light and dark themes. The repository also contains Jest unit tests, build and release workflows, screenshots, and published packages for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Created independently by Jerome Thayananthajothy, Comet could suit a developer who wants to take over an existing desktop utility and develop it further. Potential next steps include conversion presets, stronger format validation, and a smoother installation experience. The latest release dates to November 2024. Further development should include dependency updates, testing on current operating systems, and resolving the installation warnings documented for macOS and Windows.

Comet is a finished cross-platform desktop media converter — Electron + Vue 3 + TypeScript wrapping FFmpeg for audio/video and Jimp for images, with drag-and-drop batch conversion, live progress, i18n, dark mode, and signed-off packages for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
This is a real, shipped app, not a weekend prototype: adapter-pattern conversion layer, Jest tests over the handlers and IPC, three GitHub Actions workflows (test/build/release), bundled ffmpeg-static and ffprobe-static, and a Tailwind/radix-vue UI with actual screenshots to prove it. At this price you're essentially buying a year of Electron plumbing — the tedious part — plus a clean brand and domain reference. Diligence: the last release is November 2024, so budget a day or two for dependency bumps (Electron and Jimp both move fast) and a fresh build test on current macOS/Windows; the bigger real cost is code signing — an Apple Developer account and a Windows cert (roughly $100/yr and $100–400/yr) are what turn those scary 'unknown publisher' popups into a shippable consumer product. Do that, add presets, and you have a credible paid utility in a category where the incumbents are ad-ri
Rough read on consumer/prosumer media-conversion tools — millions of users on freemium converters and video utilities at $10–40 a license, a slice of the broader creator-software market.
