A developer has created an open-source tool that allows users to remove one or multiple audio tracks from a video file locally, without uploading the file to the cloud. The tool, built with React, TypeScript, and Node.js, uses FFmpeg to process videos and features real-time progress updates, batch processing, and track selection persistence.

The developer aimed to solve a personal problem of manually editing video audio tracks and created a lightweight, fast, and free tool. The project is available on GitHub, along with a demo video and contact information for the developer.
