As I worked on my personal projects, I kept running into the same problem: There wasn’t a simple, local way to convert screen recordings into GIFs that look clean in a README.md.

Recordings don’t render inline on GitHub READMEs, and I didn’t want to rely on bulky video editors or upload my files to some sketchy ad-filled site. So, I wrote a small script.

I found myself using it so often that I turned it into a proper tool: minimal, local, and built for developers who care about good documentation.

I’m not some elite hacker — just a dev who wanted a better way to share demos. Thought others might find it useful too.
