Ask HN: Tools for Code Typing Simulation?

• typeit

  18 3,015 4.0 JavaScript

  The most versatile JavaScript typewriter effect library on the planet.

I'm looking for a tool that could mimic Code Typing but do it smoothly. I need it for recording tutorials but I don't want to record myself typing the code as that is not always smooth and is time consuming.

Something like TypeIt[0] but with Code Highlighting.

This is what I'm talking about: https://youtu.be/U4ogK0MIzqk?t=9

  2 575 10.0 Python

  Desktop Automation Framework. Drive your mouse and keyboard with an easy to use language.

  

There is https://github.com/hofstadter-io/self-driving-desktop that enables you to "drive" the mouse and keyboard across applications. I originally built this for automating recordings. It even has a recording feature itself, so you can go through the demo by hand and then cleanup the steps afterwards.

  surveyjs.io sponsored
