What it does

Principle for Mac 4.0 makes it easy to design animated and interactive user interfaces. Whether you're designing the flow of a multi-screen app, or new interactions and animations, Principle helps you create designs that look and feel amazing.

Now video time can be controlled by a driver! In the prototype above, the video layer's time is controlled by scroll offset. Principle 4 gives you much more control over video layers. Videos can now be set to paused, their time and volume can be manually set, and all these values can be frozen in transitions. Audio layers also benefit from all these features! Basically everyone has asked for this, and now it's here. Hold shift while interacting with the preview and all animations will run in slow motion. Whether you're demoing an animation to others, or perfecting a transition, it can be very helpful to see an animation frame-by-frame.

    Hi all, founder @ Retool here. We initially launched Retool on HN five years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14515494. The feedback was extraordinarily helpful then (e.g. we launched source control, on-prem, etc. based on HN comments), and we’re grateful for all of it. Today, we’re excited to get HN’s thoughts on one of our new products: Retool Mobile. It lets you build and deploy mobile apps in minutes, not days. The idea is there is a large class of line-of-business mobile apps, and the process of getting a simple form + button on a mobile device, in a native app,…
