## Features

- **Scripted Demos**: Automate your coding demonstrations to maintain a perfect
  flow.โ€‹
- **Code Highlighting**: Emphasize specific code segments to draw audience
  attention.โ€‹
- **Integrated Slides**: Present slides directly within VS Code for a cohesive
  experience.โ€‹
- **Customizable Actions**: Execute various VS Code commands and tasks as part
  of your demo.
- **PowerPoint Integration**: Seamlessly move from slides to code using the
  [PowerPoint integration](https://demotime.show/integrations/powerpoint/).

## Getting Started

1. **Installation**: Install the extension.โ€‹
2. **Initialization**: After installation, initialize the extension in your
   project by opening the Explorer panel in VS Code. Locate the **Demo Time**
   view and click on the "**Initialize**" button. This action creates a `.demo`
   folder in your workspace containing either a `demo.json` or `demo.yaml` file,
   depending on your chosen format.โ€‹
3. **Creating Demos**: Populate the act file with your actions, defining each
   step and action as required.โ€‹ More information about the available actions
   can be found in the [supported actions](https://demotime.show/actions/)
   documentation section.

## Documentation
