html-demo

Show an app working on a web page by drawing it live in HTML instead of recording it. A Mac-style window plays the app step by step, and every frame is a pure function of one clock, View(t), drawn on a fixed 1200 × 750 stage that one CSS scale fits to any width. The pointer is scripted, labels and pictures come from the real app, a steps bar sits under the window, it plays only while on screen, and reduced motion gets designed end frames. Use when someone wants a product demo, an animated app window or hero, a feature walkthrough, "the UI animated and simulated in HTML", "like a screen recording but HTML", an interactive product tour on a landing or download page, or wants to replace screen recordings, GIFs or MP4s of their UI with crisp live HTML. Also use to build many such windows at once with helper agents, or to scrub, freeze and screenshot them.

# HTML Demo

**React · DOM/CSS** (a vanilla twin is in `scripts/step-window.js`). No video, canvas, WebGL or screen recording.

It looks recorded, but it's HTML. Each frame is computed, so it stays sharp at any size and pixel density, its words are real text, and it can loop, jump to a step, scrub, freeze for a screenshot and stand still for reduced motion, all from the same code.

**Boundary.** Use `browser-video-recording` when you need a real recording of a real browser as an MP4. Use `website-to-motion-design` when a page becomes a fixed-length film. Use this skill when the deliverable is a live window on a web page that shows an app working.

**Provenance.** Extracted from fil.design/download (October 2026). There, Fil for Mac's hero window runs four workflows end to end. Eight chapter windows each show one feature step by step: import a URL → Design → the agent; prompt → inpaint → outpaint → layers → angle; record → motion design → edit → transcript; sites; the browser. One lead built the engine and the hero, and one helper agent built each chapter window from a shared brief.

## The mechanism

**Every frame of the app is a pure function of one number.** A step's `View({ t })` draws everything inside the window at a fixed 1200 × 750 design size from `t` alone, where `t` is seconds into the step. One CSS scale (`--k = width / 1200`) then fits that stage to the window.
