# GitHub - addyosmani/recorder: 📹 Record is an open-source web app to record screen and camera directly in your browser

**[Community Picks](https://daily.dev/sources/community)** · 4 min read · 88 upvotes · 5 comments

## Summary

Record is an open-source web app that lets you record your screen and camera directly in your browser without any downloads or installations. It supports screen-only, screen-and-camera, or camera-only modes, and features a picture-in-picture view, customizable camera shapes, a built-in teleprompter, and MP4 conversion. It works specifically with Chrome and Chromium browsers and prioritizes privacy by keeping all recordings local.
