QuickScript is a simple ExtendScript editor from Airweb, aimed at quickly running free scripts pulled from community forums or generated with ChatGPT inside After Effects and Premiere Pro. Rather than a large scripting suite, it gives you a focused space to paste, edit and run code.
The editor covers a handful of practical touches. SHIFT + TAB automatically indents your code, and a built-in JS linter checks it as you work. The $.log() method outputs messages or variables to the console, while you can search application commands by name or ID and get a property path directly.
QuickScript is at version 1.1, released on November 19, 2024, which added compatibility with the After Effects beta. Beyond After Effects and Premiere Pro, it also lists support for Audition, Illustrator and Photoshop. A demo video is available on the developer's page, and the tool is listed here as free.
