How does Scrimba's inline code-editor cum video viewer work?
It has an inline code editor cum video viewer that lets you to see the tutorial and edit the code in the same window. Is that a plugin? For example, check this out.
Scrimba is a whole new format, and not a plugin you can install.
Technically, it records events instead of pixels (which is what normal video does). This means we have a DOM recorder that records all interactions the creator does when creating the screencast.
When you're viewing a Scrimba screencasts, the recorded events are replayed, so that you see exactly the same thing the creator saw when creating it.
This opens up for tons of possibilities, with interactivity being the most apparent one (jump into the editor and change the code). However, we've just begun scratching the surface of what we can do with this format, so stay tuned :)
It was also interesting to learn. I am currently looking for a streaming service that syncs well with the webcam. I found exactly what I needed, a great video service with the flexibility of video editing and many other functions you can read more about this.Now you can develop your YouTube channel
