Two open source alternatives: https://github.com/oct16/TimeCat and https://github.com/rrweb-io/rrweb we are working - at Telecom Paris - on synchronizing audio recording as well for pedagogical reasons (for example making programming tutorials) here https://github.com/Telecom-Paris/generic-rrweb-recorder . You can also try our "ace editor" specific recorder to make c programming and python programming tutorials https://github.com/France-ioi/codecast look at the recordings we have created here https://www.edx.org/course/c-programming-getting-started it includes a client side c interpreter . If you know any other tool to make pedagogical tutorials please let me know!

Those look cool. rrweb is about two years old, same as DOMRec, TimeCat started in February this year, so it's not surprising we didn't find them :-).

By the way, I find your pernosco debugger very interesting for pedagogical purposes. We are working on integrating Debug Adapter Protocol to preprocess the execution of a program and execute it line by line on the client side for teaching purposes but your solution looks much more elegant ! Any plan to make it compatible with Python and Java or other JVM languages ?

Right now we're focused on selling the product we have.

The infrastructure we built to support JS would extend pretty easily to Python. Extending to Java would be a lot more work. No plans to do either anytime soon (unless someone wants to pay us significant money for that).

OMG you're the creator of https://rr-project.org/ ! That's the one I wanted to use first. Ho ! We have to talk :)

Sure, email me.

rr inspired me when I choose the name rrweb:)

Hello @yz-yu and thank you for this fabulous project rrweb ! We are developing educational tools out of it (programming tutorials with audio, for example)! Keep up the good work.

PostHog is using rrweb for recording user sessions :D
