It depends what you’re trying to share? If it’s a presentation to an audience gathered in a room, I send my slide-deck (with videos) to somebody on the other side to play.

For any Processing sketches that run in the browser (p5, etc.), there are [live code sharing / collaborative editors](https://discourse.processing.org/t/is-there-a-collaborative-p5-editor-similar-to-google-docs-for-example/24386/9), allowing everybody online to edit and view code changes simultaneously.

If you’re trying to preview Processing IDE (Java) sketches over Zoom, you could drop the sketch `frameRate()`. This means your animation is slower, but it’s easier for viewers to discern the motion.

Also, dropping your screen resolution in your monitor display settings _may_ help. (It also makes everything larger and easier to see)
