Mac Developer Tool Demo Video, ready in minutes
Developers evaluating a new tool skim documentation fast, and a short {device} mockup video of the actual dashboard or CLI output often communicates more in ten seconds than a paragraph of marketing copy. Mockly frames your screenshot in a clean MacBook-style frame with a soft rounded top edge, built for landscape screens, built for developer tool and API companies.

Developers evaluating a new tool skim documentation fast, and a short {device} mockup video of the actual dashboard or CLI output often communicates more in ten seconds than a paragraph of marketing copy. The Mac frame in Mockly is landscape only, matching how people actually use a laptop screen, with a 12px corner radius tuned to match the real device. Recommended aspect ratios: 16:9 for YouTube/website embeds, or 1:1 for square social posts.
How Mockly builds the animation
Upload a screenshot of your dashboard, CLI output, or docs UI, frame it in Mac, and use a steady scroll to reveal the full interface without narration.
What you export
Export at 1080p or 4K to embed directly in your README, docs site, or landing page. Every export is yours to use commercially, and Pro removes the Mockly watermark entirely if you're shipping this to production.
Frequently asked questions
GitHub READMEs render GIFs more reliably than MP4 embeds. Export your Mac mockup as MP4 for your docs site or landing page, and convert to GIF separately if you need it inline in a README.
A Mac frame adds visual polish, but the no-device option works well too if you want the interface itself to be the entire focus with no surrounding chrome.
Whenever your UI changes meaningfully. Since Mockly just needs a fresh screenshot, re-exporting an updated demo takes minutes, not a re-shoot.
