GitShrink is a browser-based video compressor that uses WebAssembly FFmpeg to locally shrink videos below GitHub's 10MB upload limit. It's interesting because it's a privacy-focused, single-purpose tool that runs entirely client-side with no backend infrastructure.

Target audience: backend devs, frontend devs, devops
