by Philipp Wolfer
When a workflow needs to be explained, this program allows me to quickly and easily generate screen videos in formats like mp4, webm, and my favorite gifs. 😍!
Peek makes it easy to create short screencasts of a screen area. It was built for the specific use case of recording screen areas, e.g. for easily showing UI features of your own apps or for showing a bug in bug reports. With Peek you simply place the Peek window over the area you want to record and press “Record”. Peek is optimized for generating animated GIFs, but you can also directly record to WebM or MP4 if you prefer.
