doitlive is a Python CLI tool for live terminal presentations. It reads a file of shell commands and replays them in a fake terminal session as you type random characters, simulating live coding.
Use cases
- fake live coding during conference talks
- replay shell commands in a demo as if typing them live
- record a scripted terminal session for a presentation
- make a terminal demo look effortless
- rehearse command-line tutorials
- create hacker-typer style terminal effects
When to choose
- you give talks involving terminal demos and want reliable, scripted typing
- you want a lightweight pip/homebrew-installable presentation tool
- you want to avoid typos and mistakes during live shell demos
When to avoid
- you need actual interactive execution with real output branching
- you need screen recording or video capture of terminal sessions
- you need GUI-based presentation tooling
