    Love the way this is done. It's a shame commercial vendors don't do this sort of thing for their product docs more regularly.

      I've been trying. I'm even building something to make adoption easier, not launched yet but it's here https://docskit.codehike.org

    That is a fantastic presentation. It reminds me of the annotated source/site that backbonejs used to have, but this one is interactive. Really great job!

      Pomber is the founder of CodeHike and the code block animations you see are powered by it! We use CodeHike for our doc tutorials and it’s so much easier to follow.

      could not agree more. this is the "everything has to be communicated via video format" they tell you not to worry about... as it were... all of the interactive and sequential that helps to build up a story, but where every detail is brought into focus exactly when it is relevant, but still forms part of a cohesive, intelligible whole (ie. a document! (who knew that documents were a great way to document things!)). i really have nothing to add to parent other than to second how fantastically presented the content on this page is. really beautiful work.

      Motioncanvas may also be of interest then!
