I'd consider using something besides 'list all files' as first example in the gif. I'd think anyone who opens a terminal knows how to do that so listing files in a directory and hitting a spinner isn't very inspiring.
The second curl example is better since plenty of people won't know that off the top of their head.
Meh. I am fairly certain the number of people who would both use this and also fail to consider possible use cases half a second into the ls demo is zero.

Can it create regexes? That would be the thing that would sell it to me via a demo.
I think the point of the demo is to start with something dead simple that "everyone" knows and get more complex with each example.
