Media Compressor Pro 🎥🖼️

A premium, fast, and secure media compressor built with React and FastAPI.

• Images: Compressed purely in the browser (client-side) for absolute privacy and zero server cost.
• Videos: Securely uploaded and compressed via a fast FFmpeg backend, with strict size limits and auto-cleanup to prevent server bloat.

• Client-Side Image Compression: Zero quality loss, instant compression directly in the browser.
• Backend Video Compression: Safe and fast MP4 compression using ffmpeg and FastAPI.
• Security Built-In: 50MB file size limit, strict MIME-type checking, and background cleanup tasks to delete temporary files instantly.

Quick Deploy 🚄

Host it yourself instantly on Railway! The included Dockerfile natively builds the React frontend and deploys the FastAPI backend with FFmpeg.

Security Architecture 🔒

• Image Privacy: Images never leave the user's browser.
• Video Safety: Videos are saved temporarily using secure UUIDs, compressed, sent back, and then immediately deleted via FastAPI BackgroundTasks.
• Rate Limits & Sizing: Hardcoded to reject videos larger than 50MB.
