Oh, 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.

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…

Hyperframes is a more mature tool in more than one way

I 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.

You could've commented literally anything else instead of this but instead went with a zero-content apparent criticism of the web page.

Mermaid 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

There have been too many ads for this site posted this month. 8 of your 10 recent comments are just site promotions, which is getting annoying.

By the way, I don't really see the value here. Most of this could be vibe-coded and reimplemented in a day or two. It’s just an integration of existing NPM libraries.

> zero-content

Changing the default demo is a reasonable and actionable suggestion.

My goal is to build the only app you need for reading technical documentation. I am working on it daily for the past 5 months, and almost every day I have a new feature which I want to share with HN people and try it out
