A terminal that types itself, in your colours, at a pace people can read.

Set the window title, the prompt, the typing speed and the colours for the prompt, the cursor and the output. The lines type themselves at a readable pace, so a demo gets its terminal shot without you rehearsing commands on camera.

Frequently asked questions

How do I make a fake terminal video?

Open the template, set the window title and the prompt, pick the colours and a typing speed, then render. The lines type themselves on screen, so nothing has to run on a real machine.

Can I change the commands it types?

No. The typed lines are part of the animation. You set the window title, the prompt, the font size, the speed and the colours, which is what makes it look like your shell rather than a generic one.

Is it better than a screen recording?

A recording shows whatever your machine does, including typos, waits and the rest of the desktop. This types at a steady, readable pace, and you can re-render it at any size without setting the session up again.
