Exports

FairyFlow can export your sequences in three formats. All export options are available in the sequence editor. Sequence editor is opened when .ffsq file is opened.

Export options in the sequence editor

Format Use case
Player package (.ffpkg) Interactive playback with cue-based navigation
Video (.mp4) Sharing or embedding; requires ffmpeg
PDF Slide handouts; each selected frame becomes one page

Player package

A .ffpkg is FairyFlow's native self-contained format. It bundles the animation data so it can be played without a running server.

Play a package with:

fairyflow play <mypackage.ffpkg>

Pass --twin-view to open two windows instead of one — a clean window (for a projector) and a presenter window with speaker notes on by default:

fairyflow play <mypackage.ffpkg> --twin-view

Keyboard shortcuts in the player:

Key Action
Right or Page Down Continue to next cue / advance animation
Left or Page Up Step back
Home Jump to first frame
End Jump to last frame
F5 Toggle fullscreen
N Toggle the speaker-notes overlay for the focused window

The player automatically pauses at every cue, and at the end of every scene, unless the scene uses flow=True.
