gifify is a shell script CLI that converts movies and screen recordings into GIFs. It supports options for output naming, cropping, framerate, playback speed, and looping.

Use cases

  • convert a screen recording into a gif
  • make a gif to embed in a github issue or pull request
  • create a gif to share in slack
  • crop a video to a region and export as gif
  • change the framerate or playback speed of a gif
  • make a gif that loops a fixed number of times

When to choose

  • you want a quick, simple command-line way to turn mov recordings into gifs
  • you frequently share screen recordings in Slack or GitHub
