Let's look at the frontend in this part. This is inspired by a video by @mehulmpt posted on YouTube recently.
There are primarily two ways to play a video on a computer:
1. Play it from a single file (mp4)
2. Play it from a playlist format (HLS/DASH)
Fermion does about ~5M DSA code submissions per month.
Expected to go to 50 million before the end of this year.
Fermion's internal infrastructure is capable of doing 1000 executions per second, or roughly ~2.6B executions a month, so a lot of margin to grow 😎
There are pros and cons of both. For a single mp4 file format:
Cons:
- It's harder to encrypt the video playback
- It is difficult to seek this format
- Will not support live streaming
- Does not support adaptive bitrate (ABR)
Pros:
- Single file, easy to manage
For playlist

✅ @fermionapp for hosting courses
✅ @Cloudflare workers for AI streaming
✅ @OpenAI o4-mini with file uploads
In June, Fermion schools will egress more than 40TB of content.
40TB is like printing all the words ever spoken in human history, and then faxing them. Twice.
Fermion is doing that every month with built-in livestreaming, video streaming, and general website usage.
