Roadmap & Changelog
Welcome to our official project log! At GIFMakes, we are committed to building the ultimate local image suite. Here you can track our release milestones, bug fix summaries, library integrations, and future feature planning pipelines.
Project Changelog
June 2026
V 8.1.5 (Current Release)
Focused on performance scaling and responsive frame editing.
- Overhauled GIF Frame Counter & Analyzer to support local Canvas timeline rendering, delay charts, empty frame filters, and multi-format exports (JSON, CSV, TXT, PDF).
- Made all editor grids and metrics visible by default to enhance search engine index crawl speeds (SEO optimization).
- Removed redundant links from tools pages and streamlined footer navigations.
May 2026
V 8.1.0
Introduced multi-threaded WebAssembly video decoders.
- Updated the AVI to GIF converter to utilize FFmpeg's palettegen and paletteuse algorithms for extremely high-fidelity colors.
- Enabled local JSZip archiving, allowing users to download all decompressed frames as a single ZIP file.
- Optimized responsive rendering layouts down to 340px width breakpoints (perfect mobile compatibility).
Future Feature Roadmap
We are actively working on the following tools and upgrades for future releases:
- WebGL GPU-Accelerated Filters: Apply visual effects (sepia, grayscale, neon, pixelation) to individual frames using local shaders instead of slow CPU sweeps.
- Local AI Upscaling: Embed lightweight ONNX models inside the browser tab to upscale resolution without server costs.
- Audio Stitching: Enable creators to merge custom audio files when exporting GIFs to MP4 containers locally.
