@harshkhandeparkar I was able to make text overlay work in node by using canvas, Should I try to make it work using pupeteer instead?

[harshkhandeparkar]

No! It's awesome! Does it work with GIFs btw? (It doesn't matter if it doesn't work. We'll fix that separately)

Should I open a PR for this?

Is it text overlay? There is an issue for GIF text overlay already.
