π§ New: Scrimba Explain
|
Hello Reader, You joined the AI waitlist a while back, so I wanted to let you know: Scrimba Explain is now in Beta, and you can try it right now. βExplain lets you create "Explainers": AI-narrated guides that break down anything confusing, in easy-to-understand terms. Here's a look at Explainer slide on Stoicism: That's right, Explain is not just for code, although it excels in that domain too. People have already made Explainers on: π₯ Healthcare: terminology, patient communication, vaccines π° Finance: credit scores, tax bills π° Real estate: buying a home, mortgage submissions π Automotive: changing brakes on cars π Workplace training: toilet etiquette, STP/MBR plant training π» Consumer software: photo organisation, PDF translation, TMDB/NFO tools π Culture and landmarks: Indian temples, the history of London πͺ· Philosophy: Stoicism, the Butterfly Effect πΌ Careers: SaaS growth, marketing your appsβ βοΈ Coffee!
A few things worth knowing about Scrimba Explain: π It's free to use during the beta π You can create Explainers in just about any major language π Narration sounds natural, not robotic π’ The Community tab is where you can publish and share what you've made Community challenge: Share your passion!To celebrate the launch of this beta, weβre running a mini community challenge. The breadth of topics people have covered with their Explainers so far has been astonishing. We can't wait to see what you'll bring to the table. Cheers, Per Harald Borgen CEO at Scrimba βPS: We're actively shaping this based on feedback, so if something's confusing, broken, or brilliant, tell us. There's a WhatsApp group for exactly that: scrimba.com/whatsappβ |

Hello Reader There's a particular kind of tab you keep open for three days. A long article, a dense docs page, a Hacker News thread with four hundred comments you fully intend to get to. Most of what we learn arrives as text we don't quite have the energy for. That's roughly what this month of building has been about. Explain picked up a pile of new features, and the thread running through all of them is the same: take the thing you were going to skim, and make it watchable. So, how long has...
