Auto Typer for VS Code

🚀 Live Code Typer is a VS Code extension that types code character by character just like a human would.
Perfect for creating coding tutorials, YouTube shorts, TikTok demos, or conference talks — you can let the code “appear” naturally while you explain concepts.


✨ Features

  • ⌨️ Auto typing simulation — feed a file, and it writes into the editor like a human.
  • 🕒 Adjustable typing speed — realistic typing speed instead of instant paste.
  • 📄 Line by line typing — types code line by line with natural pauses.
  • ⏸️ Pause & Resume — control playback with shortcut keys (great for recording).
  • 🎥 Perfect for creators — looks natural for tutorials, live coding demos, and shorts.

🎮 Commands

Open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P or Cmd+Shift+P on Mac) and use:

  • Auto Typer: Start → Begin typing from a source file.
  • Auto Typer: Pause/Resume → Pause or continue typing.

⌨️ Shortcuts

  • Pause / Resume → Ctrl+Alt+P (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+Alt+P (Mac).
  • (Customizable via VS Code Keyboard Shortcuts menu.)

⚡ How to Use

  1. Install the extension.
  2. Open the file where you want the code to be typed.
  3. Run Auto Typer: Start and select the source file.
  4. Sit back — the code will start typing line by line!
  5. Pause/Resume anytime with the shortcut.

🛠 Settings (Coming Soon)

  • Change typing speed.
  • Add random delays (extra human-like).
  • Choose between line-by-line or continuous typing.
