Coc.nvim: Create videos of workflows

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I think CoC is by far one of the best plugins I have used, and I feel that I am using about 10% of its power. The documentation is good, but it's quite hard to understand the _why_ in some of the features.

Describe the solution you'd like
A set of short videos explaining some of the core features via real day to day use case.

I think a few minutes of video could be worth pages of documentation.

https://github.com/Shougo/deoplete.nvim - Deoplete uses wildly varying quality GIFs to convey some of its features.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Overhauling the documentation to sell features from a _why_ stand point, rather than a raw explanation.

Additional context
We discussed this briefly on Gitter, wanted to add this for permanence.

I'd actually be interested in this. I use coc every day and I feel like I use quite a few of the features.
The main problem is the format of videos, I feel like me talking would end up in a horrible unwatchable video and combining text screens with short clips is probably not the solution
Also this could split into 2 parts:

  1. Short videos/gifs for every feature/command
  2. Some longer video(s) with the actual workflow - basically 1 but composed as longer videos.

Maybe even videos for configurations part - how to (un)install extesions, opening & editting settings etc.
