How we make the how-to videos

What this is

WorkWingman has an in-app tutorial recorder (built under WING-210 and WING-211). We use it to create guided tutorials that show people how features work.

Those tutorials help with:

  • Getting new users started (onboarding)
  • The documentation site

Status (simple)

  • We can record guided tutorials in the app today (WING-210 / WING-211).
  • Turning them into (or migrating them to) video format is still planned (WING-212). As of 2026-07-30, that work is not done yet.

When people say “how-to videos,” they mean this content path: capture a clear walkthrough in-product, then ship it where users learn. Video packaging is the next step under WING-212.

Recipe: make a new tutorial

Before you start

TODO(verify): What access, environment, and setup someone needs before recording.

Record

  1. Use WorkWingman’s in-app tutorial recorder.
  2. Walk through the feature the way a user should learn it.
  3. Save the guided tutorial when you’re done.
  4. TODO(verify): Any review or approval step before it goes live.

Where it goes

TODO(verify): Exactly where the finished recording is stored and who can find it.

How people see it

  • Onboarding surfaces
  • The docs site
  • TODO(verify): Any other places tutorials appear

When WING-212 lands, tutorials will move toward a video format; until then, ship the guided tutorials produced by the current recorder.

Why this matters

Clear, up-to-date walkthroughs reduce confusion. Recording inside the real product keeps demos honest and easier to redo when the UI changes.

Don’t invent the details

Exact file names, tool menus, and export formats should come from WING-210/211 (and later WING-212), not from guesswork. Mark anything still unknown as TODO(verify).
