Still text

Type over it afterwards

Every effect is an Illustrator live effect on the type itself, not an outlined copy. Fix a typo, change the font, the effect follows.

Native

Built with Illustrator's own tools

Strokes, fills, gradients and live effects, in the Appearance panel where you expect them. Save any result as a Graphic Style and reuse it.

Fast

Sliders, not 40 steps

A 3D extrusion with hidden edges removed is an afternoon by hand. Here it's an angle and a depth, and it updates as you type.
