Think Asciinema, but for full coding sessions with audio, video, and images.
While replaying a session, you can pause at any point, explore the code in your own editor, modify it, and even run it. This makes following tutorials and understanding real codebases much more practical than watching a video.
Local first, and open source.
p.s. I’ve been working on this for a little over two years and would love to hear your thoughts.

Seems this but with a slightly different spin?
EDIT2: Gave it a go. Works as intended, so good job on that. The video being a video, makes it a bit awkward though - if I stop the recording and edit some part, I'd want to see the changes live, but for that I guess I'd have to start the server myself? And when I hit play, my changes got deleted anyway (?).
As for the usefulness aspect, personally I am not sure that this has a benefit over e.g. watching youtube tutorials/following books. I watched one of the videos and I'd have to concentrate on the video, the text and audio at the same time, and it wouldn't be me typing the code anyway, so I'm not sure how much I'd remember of it. I'd have to stop, open a new project and try to rewrite it myself to memorize the concepts deeper. But that's just my personal take - might be that there's a big userbase for such interactive learning!
