Hi Daniel,
This looks like a great idea.
Having perused the page on your site (I can't test the framework at
the moment as I'm away from my Mac) it's not quite clear how the UI is
highlighted (is it done by actually drawing a red circle as shown in
the screenshots ?)
I feel it would be much clearer if you had a video on there showing
your demo app ?
Also, one recommendation is to use Webkit and render HTML in the pop
up rather than just text. It can be quite tiring on the eye's to read
paragraph after paragraph of plain text. Allowing the developer to
embed images or even videos (i.e. YouTube) would really enhance this
experience.
