Best Screencast to GIF?

Hey!
Performing my data analysis on a daily basis sometimes I can come up with a nice animation (e.g. people movings from place to place during the daytime). These animations are web-based, it means that they are not GIFs or videos but small "websites" that animate stuff using javascript
But I want to share this animation! I know how can I create a screencast on my Macbook using Quicktime. But I wonder - is there a tool that can convert a piece of my screen to a GIF?
It may work like screenshotting tool but capturing not static view but animated.
I hope that there is something great on Producthunt that can help me with my task. Can you please point me to it? 🤗

Hey Daniil, I use Canva - just simply upload the video (in your case, .mov file) and then convert the video to a .gif.
Curious to know if there are any other tools that can turn a screenshot/ video into a gif :)

@jun_gong @okhlopkov that'd be cool!
also found this - https://gist.github.com/dergache... not sure if it works tho
I swear by for https://recordit.co recording bits of my screen, though the frame rates are probably optimised for interaction rather than 30fps animations
