What is this for? I understand that it creates animated tweens between two code states, but I've never seen this done, so I'm asking more about the premise that led you to build this. (Thanks!)

I have seen people sharing educational code animations on Twitter, but the process for creating them seemed really tedious (required you to use Keynote, Magic Move etc). So I wanted to automate away the really boring stuff!

It's geared at developer content creators who want to share really nice looking snippets of code on Twitter / use it in their videos.

Good to know the reason and target market. I saw the YouTube video and was not sure how this could be useful but now I understand.

Good luck!

I seem to remember him saying he makes those animations using a PowerPoint transition.
