"Already used it for my first demo and already planning next one 🤩. Code highlight and run VS Code commands are my favorite features of this tool that allow me to cover most of my demo cases already 😍 Congrats on that awesome work👏"
Adam Wójcik
"Had the pleasure of using Demo Time for a community call demo, its very good, well thought out and found it really useful. I primarily used it for highlighting code as I was talking through a Copilot agent sample. Really useful and highly recommend. I most certainly will be using on future demos considering how easy it is to setup. Thank you 👏"
Paul Bullock
"I love using VSCode for all my presentations & code demos. With DemoTime you can automate many aspects of VSCode, like showing and highlighting code, changing code, run terminal commands and more! It's a super flexible framework to run demos."
