Although I respect what you're doing for conversions -- I find it odd how difficult it is to get to a demo of the video or read anything about the practice, not theory, that went behind creating this (i.e. what software was used to record, what equipment, etc). These two are supposed to be front and center given the title of the article, no?

Indeed, I might write a new version from a more technical standpoint. I can do a little bit of answering here and now, though. Pretty much every part of the process was home-grown. We track our own metrics with our tools, and the tutorial itself was made with pure JS and jQuery.
I'd love to see something like this if you could give some insight into how you approached this. Parts of the app change constantly, so for me -- the boostrap-esque tooltip walkthroughs have always seemed most logical
