When deploying new software internally, on early stages, you also need some walkthrough. Here is where this tool becomes a must: quick and easy guides.

@dieztour we agree! Thanks for your support :)

The new HTML markdown and copy link is a nice feature! I’ve been sharing links in Slack and it’s super easy.

@brent_palmer That's great, thanks for the support Brent!

Saw this product randomly in a Twitter thread. This is such a time saver for making documentations! I cringe when I think back on how much time I personally wasted making documentation manually in the past.
Brian Shultz
@nkotov That's so cool! Thanks Nik -- hopefully you and your team don't have to struggle anymore :) DM me if you wanna set up an onboarding!

This is awesome! I am a professor at a community college and am constantly responding to my students about how to navigate my remote courses on Canvas, our integrated learning system. Go here, click this, click the orange button, etc. I will be using Tango to produce visual how-to guides to walk them through this. So easy.

@calvin_young Super cool use case - can't wait to hear more about it. Hopefully your students like it too!

This is going to be HUGE. I've never left a comment on Product Hunt before. Mark my words. This will change the world. Thank you!
Ken Babcock
@jordan_brown3 No, thank YOU! Excited to get your feedback.

Awesome product! Can truly save a lot of time for those who make howto guides. Just need to auto-hide the left-bar when taking a screenshot because it shows in the tutorial. Great work guys!

@danbars Hey! Yes, that is something we have on the roadmap. Currently, the chrome api takes a screenshot of everything's in the browser and that includes the controller. You have few options to clean this up though: 1. While you're capturing you can, left/right align the controller to move it away from where you're focusing on. 2. While editing the workflow, you can zoom and pan the image to avoid the controller. Additionally you can edit the screenshot and block the controller out with either a blur or a rectangle that has a similar color to your background. Really sorry about this inconvenience - we're working on it!

I have not tried your product yet, but based on your intro video this is a God send. I want to invest, take my money!
Ken Babcock
@guytaylor88 LOL! We are flattered!

Guys, I tried this out, because we could definitely use this in our team. However, the steps are truncated after one line? I can't see a way to reveal this other than the tooltips in the sidebar, which is a little bit of a problem as we're going to have step descriptions longer than one line. Am I missing something basic? EDIT: Not actually an issue-- or maybe just with my eyesight. Multi-line descriptions are supported, as per the response from Brian.
Brian Shultz
@deejtulleken Hi Deej -- thanks so much for writing in! Can you check out this Tango I made for you? Does that solve your issue? https://app.tango.us/app/workflo...
Deej Tulleken
@brian_shultz Haha, thanks Brian, that was a kind way of saying "Yes, you're missing something basic." I somehow completely missed the option to add a description.
Brian Shultz
@deejtulleken if you couldn't find it, that's usually a sign that we need to make it more clear :)
Deej Tulleken
@brian_shultz I think this might be closer to one of those times that I open the fridge, stare at the milk on the shelf for about five seconds and then ask my wife incredulously how we can be out of milk.
