If you're interested in staying up to date with Chrome DevTools, I run this project called Dev Tips: https://umaar.com/dev-tips/ https://umaar.com/dev-tips/
It contains around 150 tips which I display as short, animated gifs, so you don't have to read much text to learn how a particular feature works.
- e1g 9y agoTwo thumbs up for @umaar work - absolutely love the bits of knowledge and the GIF format. Thank you for discovering & sharing actually useful tips.
- umaar 9y agoThank you, means a lot!
- kemayo 9y agoMaybe add an RSS feed? I can consume it now because my RSS reader (NewsBlur) has an email gateway, but that's still kinda jumping through silly hoops.
- nreece 9y ago* shameless plug * Create a RSS feed with Feedity: https://feedity.com https://feedity.com
- Adam89 9y agoI was looking for a course like this, thank you!
- umaar 9y agoI guess you're talking about the Modern DevTools course which Dev Tips links to, thanks! I'm working on new course content every week or so. If you want to influence future content, check out: https://github.com/umaar/dev-tips/issues/27 https://github.com/umaar/dev-tips/issues/27
- HoyaSaxa 9y agoCould you share some best practices you've learned in generating animated product gifs? For instance, what software you use, what settings have you tuned, etc?
- jflowers45 9y agoI use ScreenFlow for screen recording and they added export as animated gif recently. It's so easy - highly recommend it. https://www.telestream.net/screenflow/overview.htm https://www.telestream.net/screenflow/overview.htm

- jflowers45 9y agoI think the spirit of the question was "how best to do it from the gazillion options that are out there"
- leeoniya 9y agothere aren't a gazillion options, though; it's more like 5.
- untog 9y ago"Which of the five options for GIF recording do you recommend" is still a valid question though, no? Why not save everyone the time of trying all five themselves?
- talmand 9y agoPlus more of the idea of "I think you make good stuff, would you be willing to share how you did it?"
- nimos 9y agoWow nice. I feel like a real noob I didn't even know about the command palette. It's too bad my friends on facebook aren't sharing these instead of all the damn recipe gifs.
- jxm262 9y agoThis is incredibly awesome. thanks for sharing!
- throwasehasdwi 9y agothis is sick

- guiambros 9y agoThanks for sharing, and for creating it! Great work. The tip on how to capture full sized screenshots without a browser extension[1] was already worth the visit. [1] https://umaar.com/dev-tips/151-screenshot-capture/ https://umaar.com/dev-tips/151-screenshot-capture/
- reledi 9y agoI wish I could subscribe to mobile push notifications (without having to keep the site open or download an app) instead of subscribing to a mailing list. Does anything like this exist? I've found over the years that emails as notifications get ignored by me, no matter how interested I was at the time of subscription.
- reificator 9y agoService Workers can receive push notifications for a site, after the user confirms permissions. https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/getting-started/codelabs/push-notifications/ https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/getting-start...
- niutech 9y agoNice, but why don't you convert all those huge GIFs to HTML5 videos using e.g. Gfycat? Animated GIFs are loading very slowly and wasting my precious data plan.
