Hi HN,

My name is Rahul Sarathy and I posted TextFrame a few months ago on HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29234636) as a tool to create animated technical papers. After gathering feedback from the community, I found that the best use case for my tool was for creating tutorials.

I am proud to share my next iteration as a tool to create animated product tutorials. Hopefully you can find use in it to create more engaging tutorials for onboarding and helping out your users.

You can check out some examples I’ve created using the software: at https://textframe.app/examples

Please let me know what you think! You can also email me at rahul@textframe.app if you have any questions or just want to say hello

This is very cool and useful. I will provide some wish-list for this offline. I love the idea and I will use this.
That's awesome to hear. Definitely get in touch with me over email, I'd love to discuss more with you.
Well done!

One question, the orginal demo was amazing in itself, is that technology/source still available somewhere?

You can actually still make any of the previous technical animations using the current software. It's just that the outward pages are geared to demo the customer tutorial use case

Bitcoin demo - https://textframe.app/examples/bitcoin

CockroachDB demo - https://textframe.app/rahul/cockroachdb_serverless_demo

Just to add on to this, why not offer both?
Congrats and well done, looks very cool. Will try it out and send you an email with any feedback or questions.
