Use when a beat needs to show a walkthrough of a web app / dashboard / settings page and you'd rather build it from screenshots than get (or ask for) a real screen recording — "fake a screen recording", "turn these screenshots into a screencast", "simulate clicking through the dashboard", "animate this UI walkthrough", "cursor moving through the app". Built on remotion/src/lib/screencast.tsx. This is a technique WITHIN step 2 (make-tsx): defer timeline/render/bake orchestration to make-tsx and raw crash-free TSX rules to vidtsx-2d-generator. Not for a single static page clone (use WebBrowserFrame directly) and not when the point is genuine proof of real speed/output (use a real recording).★ 330 GitHub starsSkillA Khan Academy style explainer videoKhan explainerhaiderfarooq3/khan-explainer · by haiderfarooq3Use when the user wants a Khan Academy style explainer video, a blackboard or whiteboard lesson, a hand-drawn chalk-talk animation, a short narrated video that teaches a concept ("explain X in a video", "explainer video", "teach X in 30 seconds"), or a tutorial that draws hand-written arrows, circles and captions over product screenshots ("draw over the UI", "annotated walkthrough"), or clips cut from a YouTube video or podcast where the speaker's real audio plays under a blackboard drawn to it ("khanify this video", "clip this with the Khan visual"), especially when it must be free, local, and use no paid APIs or keys. macOS only.★ 113 GitHub starsSkillPick the output format that makes an explanation easiestUnderstanding ladderChangWenC/understanding-ladder · by ChangWenCPick the output format that makes an explanation easiest to understand, following Karpathy's understanding ladder — (1) plain controlled text, (2) diagram, (3) interactive HTML page, (4) 3Blue1Brown-style explainer video.
