#2Oh, I like the features a lot but I don't like the aesthetics.
Maybe that's just the examples but the animations are not appealing to look at.

#3This is really cool. Can imagine vibe creating scenes quickly. If the animation was a bit smoother, I could see this being used all over.

The animations are just weird. Not just on an aesthetic level but the subject matter too. If they really feel the need to convey a short story then at least base it on a public domain fairytale instead of two guys literally fighting over a women.
…or better yet, have something that people might actually want to animate using this tool. Like a chart. It might be boring but you’re at least keeping consistent with what the target audience needs (or at least that’s my understanding of your target audience from the rest of the landing page)

They word you are looking for is 'vibecoded'

#6Interesting, I do a bit of animation in XR for pedagogy. I can easily recognize patterns, e.g. stacking animations one after the other, classic parameters like duration, easing.
I'm wondering though if, compared to what I already know (e.g. https://aframe.io/docs/1.7.0/components/animation.html ) how this is better. Maybe a "renderer" there could be outputting AFrame animations instead (itself based on AnimeJS, quite popular).
It could be useful to discuss scenarii but storyboard is usually sufficient.
I'd be curious how newcomers take it up. I think for (JavaScript) the syntax is pretty straightforward but for others I'm not sure.

#7This would be much more useful if it wasn't stickmen but animating components (which would allow to do "launch video" tier animations) on boxes, and websites. This would allow for people to create tiny components and not put videos. I feel like stickmen are a "nice to have".

#8This is both awful and essentially the future, By that I mean its raw now as its in the beginning but this gave me flashbacks to the flash era of the web that had so much creativity across it.
Once you are able to add more assets in the place of emoji's this could really take off especially in the younger users. Instead of sending an emoji you'd instruct an LLM to create you one of these to send.
Well done.

#9Mermaid diagrams are awesome, the usual pain points which I am trying to solve in https://mdview.io is to allow to fix broken diagrams visually: you hit Quick Fix and then given 3 fix propositions to choose from. Sounds complicated but it works in 80% of times

#10I suggest you change the demo.
1. Boys see girl 2. Boys fight over girl
Creator could have chosen literally anything else to represent their product but instead went with an animation of boy emojis fighting over a girl emoji.
