14 DAY TRIAL // OpenShot is already a popular Linux video editor, but the developers behind this project launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise the necessary funds to port the app to Windows 8 and Mac OS X.
Now the fundraising successfully came to an end, so the Windows version of the application is expected to be released in the coming months, with Kickstarter backers donating more than $45,000 (€34,500) to support the development.
While OpenShot will also work on the desktop version of Windows 8, no Modern app is in the works for the time being, but developers confirmed that such a project might be started at some point.
While no release date for the Windows build of OpenShot has been provided, expect the final version to see daylight sometime this summer, while more info on a potential Windows 8 Metro flavor should emerge shortly after that.
