Slidev shouldn't immediately ask for camera and microphone permissions #156
Description
Currently, the first thing any Slidev user sees upon creating a new presentation and opening it in the browser is this:
An out-of-context prompt asking them to grant camera and microphone permissions.
This confused me so much the first time I vividly remember saying "What?!" out loud. Eventually I realized that Slidev has two features (camera view and recording) that warrant these permissions, but those don't seem to be communicated clearly enough for users to immediately understand the permission prompt. This would be different if Slidev was primarily marketed as a video recorder, but it's not.
Proposal:
I think it would make more sense if the prompt was delayed until a user tries to interact with one of the features that requires these permissions. In that case it could also be accompanied by a short explanation and a "dark overlay" that puts the focus on the prompt.
Slidev looks very promising by the way, I'm excited to see where it goes! 🤩
