Ask HN: Tools for Code Typing Simulation?

2 pointsby emadehsanalmost 3 years ago
I&#x27;m looking for a tool that could mimic Code Typing but do it smoothly. I need it for recording tutorials but I don&#x27;t want to record myself typing the code as that is not always smooth and is time consuming.<p>Something like TypeIt[0] but with Code Highlighting.<p>This is what I&#x27;m talking about: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;U4ogK0MIzqk?t=9<p>[0] https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;alexmacarthur&#x2F;typeit

If you want a chrome extension you could try Automa (use the Forms block)<p>If you want a standalone you could try Autohotkey (Send, Sendraw, Sendinput)

A lot of the tutorial guys have the finished code open in another screen and are just copy-typing, would that work for you?

There is <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;hofstadter-io&#x2F;self-driving-desktop" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;hofstadter-io&#x2F;self-driving-desktop</a> that enables you to &quot;drive&quot; the mouse and keyboard across applications. I originally built this for automating recordings. It even has a recording feature itself, so you can go through the demo by hand and then cleanup the steps afterwards.
