Thanks for that! You can use something like gifski to turn that video into a gif so that you can embed it into the README. Here's an example from the gifski repo: https://github.com/ImageOptim/gifski

You can use the CLI version but they also have executables with a dead simple GUI if you're so inclined. I have only ever used the GUI and it's perfect on a Mac (just drag and drop your video into it). Not sure if it's the exact same on Windows but I imagine it's amazing there too



Nice! Will replace the screenshot with a gif, if that doesn’t work for me I guess ffmpeg may be able do that too, thanks!


FYI your current demo is 25MB. Not sure if you used gifski but usually it's super helpful for making gifs smaller


Ffmpeg can output a gif. The only difficult part might be figuring out which options you need to get the quality you want.
