Show HN: Create presentations with smart animations using Excalidraw

I often create presentations where elements need to move (animate) from one slide to the next. This is great for explaining algorithms, workflows, or anything that benefits from dynamic visuals.

I used to rely on Figma prototypes with smart animations for this, but I wanted a way to do it in Excalidraw—maybe even more conveniently. So I made an Excalidraw fork which helps you present “frames” and interpolates animations between them.

Personal plug: I’m also currently looking for a full-time job. If you know of any opportunities or can refer me, I’d really appreciate it.
