Hey everyone! Excited to release my app "Tolks" on PH. I created this platform originally for educational purposes, to be used in another side-project. But I realized it could be used in far more areas like news, fun, entertainment etc. Tolks lets you quickly put any talk/story/scene/conversation online by simply adding your characters and writing few dialogues for them. The use cases for this platform are numerous. - To write visual stories for kids. Imagine Panchatantra tales written with this with sounds and all. - Like @bentossell mentioned, for user/employee onboardings. - For fun things like paraody, conversational memes, jokes etc. - Educational content to explain various concepts. Imagine JavaScript and TypeScript talking there :) Really excited to hear feedback from you all :) And yes, can't wait to see some gr8 Tolks created there...tweet them out to @tolksio

@bentossell Thanks for your words Ben. Definitely, the potential of this app is very big. Imagine things like speach synthesis attached or camera capture :)

Hey Kush. Amazing concept. Loved it. Question: where are you using the characters from? Or have you designed it yourself?

This is an interesting way of putting up stories. Would be cool if we could export the story as GIF so that it could be shared too. Also, if there could be an option to select predefined animations for every different character, I think it would make a big difference. :thumbsup:

@s0ftvar Thanks bro! By predefined animations you refer to the current head wobble effect?

@bmannelli Yes, very much! Its somewhat supported even now as a hidden feature :) Just open a tolk inside an iframe and it shows in embed mode. Will add that to UI as well real soon. Follow @tolksio for updates. Thanks :)
