A video is just an HTML page with a clock. HyperFrames (HeyGen's open-source framework) seeks a paused GSAP timeline to exact timestamps and captures each one as a frame — no timeline-scrubbing editor, just markup, CSS, and GSAP driving it. This guide teaches the mental model (why everything must be seekable/deterministic), six copy-paste recipes, and a five-pitfalls section on the mistakes that cause blank renders or frozen frames. Independent guide, not affiliated with HeyGen.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I kept hitting the same idea from different angles: a video is really just an HTML page with a clock. HyperFrames (an open-source render pipeline from HeyGen) leans all the way into that — it seeks a paused GSAP timeline to a sequence of exact timestamps and captures each one as a frame. No timeline-scrubbing editor, just markup, CSS, and GSAP driving the whole thing.
The framework itself is free. What I built is the guide I wish existed when I started: the actual mental model for why everything has to be seekable and deterministic, six complete working recipes, and a five-pitfalls section covering the specific mistakes that produce a blank render or a frozen frame instead of a helpful error message.
Would love feedback from anyone who builds automated or programmatic video pipelines, or is just curious about rendering video from code instead of a timeline tool.
