An editor first. With history built in.

These are captures of the running application, not mockups. Lucile has the timeline, monitors and inspector editors expect, and a Versions workspace where branches, revisions and merges live.

A small in-browser model of branching, comparing and merging, built on frames from Lucile's demo project. Drag clips, grade them, commit, branch and merge. It is a sketch for this page, not the editor itself.

Branch. Compare. Merge.

The ideas that made version control indispensable for code, shaped for a timeline.

  1. Branch

    Explore a new creative direction without destroying the original. Branches share your media files; nothing is copied.

  2. Compare

    See what changed between revisions and branches, item by item: what was added, removed, modified or moved, and the values before and after.

  3. Merge

    Bring changes together with explicit conflict resolution. When both sides touched the same thing, you decide, and undo reverts the whole merge.
