Live Demo
Noun · Hacker Culture
Definitions
A real-time product or technical demonstration performed directly in front of an audience rather than shown through prerecorded video. Engineers respect live demos because they are persuasive when they work and famously risky when they do not.
In plain English: Showing software working in real time instead of using a recording.
Example: "The live demo landed the sale, but only because they had backup screenshots ready."
