showcase-before-after

Before/After UI showcase — split-screen wipe reveal comparing two product states, UI redesigns, or workflow improvements. Routed from remotion-pro orchestrator.

Showcase: Before/After UI

Status: Stub — Full implementation in Wave 3

This showcase is planned for Wave 3 development. The stub reserves the skill slot, documents the specification, and displays the correct response to users who request it.


Overview

The Before/After UI showcase creates a compelling comparison video that reveals a transformation using a split-screen wipe effect. Shows two states side-by-side or sequentially — old vs new, manual vs automated, before vs after your product. Ideal for redesigns, productivity gains, and transformation narratives.

Best for: UI redesigns, workflow comparisons, productivity improvements, A/B test results, product transformations.
