# CodeMic > Record and share coding sessions with audio, video, and images that replay inside your own editor. CodeMic is a VS Code extension that enables developers to record and share coding sessions with synchronized audio, video, and images. Viewers can replay these sessions directly inside their own editor, allowing them to pause, run the code, explore, and experiment in a hands-on learning environment. The tool positions itself as a human-focused alternative to AI-generated content, emphasizing real engineering knowledge transfer. - **Play Recordings Inside Editor** - Sessions sync audio, video, and images with code changes, letting viewers pause the player to run code, explore, and experiment within their own development environment. - **Local First & Open Source** - Recordings are saved locally as JSON files, giving users full control over their content. The project is MIT licensed and available on GitHub for transparency and community contributions. - **Easy Recording** - Record directly from inside your editor with powerful editing tools including timeline controls, speed adjustment, chapters, and mixed media tracks for professional-quality sessions. - **Editor Independent Format** - While currently available only on VS Code, the file format is designed to be editor independent with plans for future support across Emacs, Vim, and web platforms. - **Session Sharing** - Share recordings manually or publish them on CodeMic.io where featured sessions cover topics like full-stack development, React, Node.js, and TypeScript tutorials. To get started, install the CodeMic extension from the VS Code Marketplace. Once installed, you can begin recording coding sessions directly within VS Code. The extension provides intuitive controls for managing your recordings, adding audio commentary, and organizing content into chapters. Published sessions can be discovered and viewed by the community on the CodeMic.io platform. ## Features - Record coding sessions with audio, video, and images - Replay sessions inside your own editor - Pause and run code during playback - Local-first JSON file storage - Timeline and speed control - Chapter support - Mixed media tracks - Session publishing on CodeMic.io - Editor independent file format ## Integrations VS Code ## Platforms WINDOWS, WEB, API, VSC_EXTENSION ## Pricing Open Source ## Links - Website: https://codemic.io/ - Documentation: https://github.com/computing-den/CodeMic - Repository: https://github.com/computing-den/CodeMic - EveryDev.ai: https://www.everydev.ai/tools/codemic
