Would it make more sense to create this in a program like After Effects?

Would it be easier to do this in a program like After Effects and then put that on your website?

How you the developers at Treehouse create the animations used in all the tutorial videos?

Thanks!

Well, I guess that when it comes to videos for Youtube or other ends for example, yes After Effects does the job. But to see the animation inside the site itself, with no need to buffer a video, CSS and JS are the call.

Unfortunately, not everyone can afford Adobe products. CSS and JS are free, though! :D

only can be with adobe....

It could be done in Adobe's Edge Animate. It offers extensive animating options and easy integration into your website because it works with javascript and css. It also works fine with responsive websites :)

Check out some cool examples:

Sidenote: Edge Animate works with CSS & JS :)
