[ObserverEffect]

One of the goals we had when we designed Onboarded was for it to be unobtrusive yet flexible. It can be used to accomplish just what you are saying. The styling as overlay/modal is just a default to get you going. It can be made into a fullscreen flow or inline, or however you want. Onboarded makes it easier to do all those things stylistically, as well as bind event handlers, post data, etc.

Ok sounds interesting.

Because I'm dumb and short of time, I could only take it at face value.

I sort of want to come away lusting to have the feature on my site.

Be great to see some of the possibilities demo'd on the page in the future !

Maybe in the intro path in addition to saying 'let me out' you could have an option like 'i like the concept, but show me a different style' and then take a few example paths to show off possibilities

This is a great idea. Thanks for the feedback.
