You do not need to manually create the guides! <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This month, I&#8217;m sharing a tool that simplifies the creation of step-by-step guides: <a href=\"https:\/\/scribehow.com\/\">Scribe<\/a>. Rather than manually developing a document with individual screenshots and text, Scribe watches what you do and automatically creates the guide for you! Just click the \u201crecord\u201d button to get going. It will \u201cmonitor your clicks and keystrokes to instantly create your guide.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A free version is available to get started, and you can upgrade to a paid account if you&#8217;d like additional features. <a href=\"https:\/\/scribehow.com\/gallery\">To better understand how it works, I recommend checking out the examples on their website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What tools do you use to create step-by-step guides?
